It goes wrong because the filenames are still different:

$ dir
      lilypond-2.14.0-1.linux-x86.sh

$ sh lilypond-2.14.0-linux-x86.sh
sh: Can't open lilypond-2.14.0-linux-x86.sh

You lost/forgot the number "1" and a dot.

You have got some tips on using "TAB completion", but that might
fail if there are several lilypond files there.

If the filename is hard to type correctly, use cut & paste instead.

First use "ls" (or "dir") to get a list of filenames.
Then type the command sh followed by a space.
Then use the mouse to mark the filename
then press the middle button (or right+left simultaneously)
linux should now paste the filename into the command you are typing.
Finally, press "enter" to execute the command.
