If you really want it spelled out for a player program then you write it with ties:
"G7"cBAB |1 "C"c2-"F"c2-"C"c4 :|2 "C"c2-"F"c2-"C"c4 |] You have to decide whether you are writing for a machine or writing for a human. (The former is a bit of a mugs game - done far too much of it and they never say "thank you").

Well, yes - in a way, What you do is that you include all the chord symbols for a single note within one pair of "'s like this: "G7"cBAB |1 "C F C"c8 :|2 "C F C"c8 |] Then you can use multiple spaces between the chord symbols to get the alignement you want. Crude, but it works.
