Hi Siena,
I hope I understand the structure of your file correctly (it's best to
include enough code that it will compile on its own). The ChordNames is a
separate context from the staff they are above, and since the round numbers
are part of the Staff context there is no way to make them jump up over the
chord names, so to speak. I think the best solution is to create another
context above ChordNames and put the round numbers in that, so something
like this:
\version "2.16.2"
theChords = \chordmode {
\time 3/4
g4 | f g2 | f4 c e:m | f g a:m | g2. |
a4:m c f | g e4.:m g8 | f2 g4 | c2
}
sopMusic = \relative c''
{
\key c \major
\time 3/4
\partial 4
g8a16( b) | c4 b a8 g | a( g) e4 e8 f16( g) | a4 g f8 e | d4( g) \bar ""
\break e8 d |
c4 c c8 g' | f4 e e8 g | a4 g e8 d | c2 \bar "|."
}
roundNumbers = {
\override Dynamics.TextScript.padding = #3
s2.*2^\markup { \circle \number 1 }
s^\markup { \circle \number 2 }
}
\score {
\new ChoirStaff <<
\new Dynamics { \roundNumbers }
\new ChordNames { \theChords }
\new Staff { \sopMusic }
>>
}
