if you really have only chords and want to add dynamics you can use (and
adapt) the following snippet:

\version "2.13.61"
<<
  \new ChordNames \with {    
    \override VerticalAxisGroup #'staff-affinity = #up % any value, only
added here to suppress warnings
  }
  \chordmode { c1 d e f g  a b c }
  \new Dynamics \with {
    \override DynamicText #'self-alignment-X = #left            % e.g. \mp
    \override DynamicText #'Y-extent = #'(-1.5 . 3)
    \override DynamicLineSpanner #'Y-extent = #'(-1.5 . 1.5) % hairpins: \<
… \!
    \override Script #'Y-extent = #'(0 . -1)                         % e.g.
\espressivo 
  }
  {
    s1 \mp s \< s s s 
    s1 \ff s _ \espressivo s s
  }
>>

oteherwise maybe you should send a tiny example to show what you mean!
