Hi,
Trying to make my first lilypond song and put let it be on score but
I can't make the timing of the lyrics fit with the melody... :
Try this:
\version "2.11.53"
melody = \relative c' {
\clef treble
\key c \major
\time 4/4
\partial 4
g8 a c4 c d a c c d e f f f e e d d2 e4 e f e e d2
e4 d4 c2
}
harmony = \chordmode {
r8 r c2 g a:min f4:maj7 f:6 c2 g f c
}
text = \lyricmode {
When I find my -- self in times of trou -- ble,
Moth -- er Ma -- ry comes to me,
Speak -- ing words of wis -- dom
let it be.
}
\score {
<<
\new ChordNames {
\harmony
}
\new Staff{
\new Voice=thesong<<\melody>>
}
\context Lyrics \lyricsto thesong \text

\layout { }
