Sure! Don't use any staff at all, just an explicit Lyrics context
with durations:
<<
\chords {
d1 d1
}
\new Lyrics \lyricmode {
Op4 een4 gro4 -- te4 pad4 -- de4 -- stoel,2
}
>>
explicit Lyrics durations are mentioned in Notation Reference 2.1, but
i guess the explanation is not clear enough. Would you be so kind and
make a documentation suggestion that would show how this information
should be presented so that everyone will find it easily?
cheers,
janek
