 I was hoping that was the answer I would get.
I am notating folk songs where there is indeed such
behaviour, i.e. the singer sings a syllable on a grace
note. Since they aren't trained musicians, I can't
force them to follow the rules, and since I am
notating performance, I need to notate the syllable on
the grace. However the problem isn't here the grace
but the slur. As long as I don't use a slur things
line up a ok.

I will look at the other posts to see if they offer a
solution.

I forgot to mention the version I am using if it
matters:GNU LilyPond 2.7.3

Also I didn't post the source since the lyrics are in
hebrew, if it is relevent I can output a png.
