simple first guess: have you considered using the Lyrics context for the
harmonic comments? If so, what was the problem with that?

Or are you asking for a way to let Lilypond calculate the harmonic
analysis for you? :-)

If you are really desperate you might think of editing the postscript
version of your score with Illustrator (Windows) or KIllustrator==Kontour
(Linux). I did not try that yet myself, though (I'm afraid there might be
a font problem). And I do not think it will be necessary in your case.

Good luck,
