The general principles are described in the section on "Vertical spacing inside a system" in the manual. You can either increase the extent of the Staff context upwards:

\override Staff.VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-4 . 7)

or as an alternative, you could increase the extent of the ChordNames context downwards:

\override ChordNames.VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-3 . 2.5)

(the default setting for ChordNames is described in the program reference for the ChordNames context: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/ChordNames#ChordNames )

How do I move the chord symbols up from the staff in a lead sheet? The
chord symbols come very close to the textscripts and I want to move
them apart. Thanks!
