Don't use the << ... \\ ... >> construct; it creates two new voices,
neither of which your lyrics will follow. You can, however, do this:
tenornotes = \relative c' { \clef "G_8" r1 |
r4
<< { \voiceOne c4^\markup { div. } c \oneVoice }
\new Voice { \voiceTwo c8 b a4 } >>
r |
r2^\markup { unis. } a2\fermata |
a4( g fis8 f) e( b') | a1 | }
That is, you introduce a parallel section (with no \\), keep
the original voice in one branch, and create a new voice for
the other branch.
Good luck,
Michael
