markup in lyrics?

[Robinson P. Tryon 03]

I'm trying to typeset more of the songs from my college songbook and I'm running
across some problems.  One problem is that sometimes there are different words
sung for different verses...

One line runs:

   ... zum, zum, zum.  {But / For /And} here by the fire ...

Where the But, For and And should be stacked up like this (use a monospace font
to view this):

          { But }
zum, zum. { For } here by the fire
          { And }

*( the multiple curly braces should be single curly braces...)

I tried to put markup in lyrics, as I had hoped I could just make a column,
etc.. but all my attempts at 'escaping' the TeX seemed to fail...

Another problem I was having was arbitrary spacing of notes and lyrics.  (e.g.
putting words to tied-together noteheads)  I've been using the standard text
interface to lilypond, but perhaps using a GUI such as Rosegarden might make it
easier for me to do more exotic things?
