Thanks for the examples. These suggestions work great!!! I can now place
lyrics that are independent of notes.
Now I would like to know how to include accidentals in the lyrics. The

Bb using the sharp and flat font
lyrics can contain markup. And markup can contain accidentals.

\new Staff \keepWithTag #'music \voice
\new Devnull=nowhere \keepWithTag #'lyricrhythm \voice
\new Lyrics \lyricsto nowhere \lyr

manual lyric placement. As far as I can tell, they both achieve the
same result.
\version 2.12.2
voice = { r4 r r r }
lyricrhythm = \tag #'lyricrhythm { c''4 c c c }
lyr = \lyricmode { I like my cat! }
\new Staff
I'm helping a friend with an instructional booklet for his ukulele music.
I'm using \lyricmode to add note names to the notes in the melody and would
like to add the word rest on the lyric line when there is a rest in the
melody. However, \lyricmode ignores the rest event.
I code the following
