In this example, I don't see any point of using the DevNull trick to

Absolutely, if you only want to make nothing but chords and lyrics.
However, if you want to set music, and then make an extraction containing
only chords and lyrics, the Devnull trick works.
Also, if you want to have multiple stanzas of lyrics, you only have to enter
the durations once, and you

\markup { \override #'(font-name . Times new roman) \line { left

The font-name override applies to the whole \line block, so \lookup
tries to pluck brace50 from Times New Roman.
The right way to do this is to develop a function that adds durations to
lyric syllables based on a music expression (you can see the prototype in
the \lyricsto c++ source code). I plan to work on this sometime in the

I think it can solve the \lyricsto
