Increasing vertical distance between chord names and notes/staves

[Ralph Palmer]

Greetings -

I'm grateful for LilyPond, Frescobaldi, and all the helpful members of this mailinglist.

I'm running LilyPond 2.23.2 with Frescobaldi 3.0.0 under

Linux-5.4.0-81-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.29 and Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS.

I would like to increase the space between the chord names and the highest notes or top staff lines. I've looked in the LilyPond Snippets and in the Snippets Repository, and can't find anything that helps. I'm guessing it's a setting in spacing or padding, but I can't figure out which setting.

I'm attaching an MWE.

All the best,

Ralph
