Avoid that one when working with vocals. Try something like attached file. Note: you have to name your \context Lyrics else they tend to be on the same line you have to make sure you don't create new voices, things like \new Voice { } << { } { } >> << { } \\ { } >> create new voices, so you have to tell lilypond every voice it's name Regards, /Karl Hammar ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Aspö Data Lilla Aspö 148 S-742 94 Östhammar Sweden +46 173 140 57
