putting markup above chord names

[Siena Kaplan-Thompson]

Hi all,

I'm writing up a simple round, and I want the number markers for the parts
to appear above the chord names.  I'm using markup on the notes to add the
numbers, and it doesn't seem to work to put the markup on the chords
instead.  Can't find anything in documentation to help, nor in archive.  I'm
using 2.16.2.  Any ideas?

Here's how I have it set up now (I'm using ChoirStaff to create this):

theChords = \chordmode { 
  \time 3/4 
  g4 | f g2 | f4 c e:m | f g a:m | g2. |
  a4:m c f | g e4.:m g8 | f2 g4 | c2 
}

sopMusic = \relative c''
{
  \key c \major
  \time 3/4
  \partial 4
  g8^\markup { \circle \number 1 } a16( b) | c4 b a8 g | a( g) e4 e8^\markup
{ \circle \number 2 } f16( g) | a4 g f8 e | d4( g) \bar "" \break e8 d |
  c4 c c8 g' | f4 e e8 g | a4 g e8 d | c2 \bar "|."
}

Thank you!
