Of course, in many cases the most convenient solution is to simply
specify the rhythm directly in the Lyrics (except that there seems to
be some bug there, as mentioned in a previous email).
\version "2.10.0"
\new Staff <<
\new Voice {
\time 3/4
c'4 c'2
}
\new Lyrics \lyricmode {
one4 two three
}

This is exactly what I need, thank you!
As Trevor suggests I'm looking for something like beat counts. I'm
using lyrics to
annotate harmonic changes which usually, but not always, follow a base

Why not use the method described in the manual , section "Lyrics
independent
of notes"? Here's Trevor's example using that technique:
\version "2.10.0"
\new Staff <<
\new Voice {
\time 3/4
c'4 c'2
}
\new Devnull = "ref" {
c'4 c'4 c'4
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "ref" {
one two three
