adding common guitar chords

Hello list, I'm very new to lilypond so please forgive me if what I'm
asking is obvious but I needed to type some chords commonly used on a
guitar: for instance a g major chord using all 6 chords would be played
with fingers at frets 355433 (from the bass). In chord mode, I could
only achieve it with the following

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\chordmode {\set TabStaff.minimumFret = #2
            \set TabStaff.restrainOpenStrings = ##t
            g,,4:16.8.10.12.15^3.7.9.11.13}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

That's a lot to type for something so common. Is there a way to define
such a chord and name it (with the "full" suffix for example) so that in
chordmode one could use g:full, c:full and so on ? Maybe there is
already a snippet for it but I couldn't find it so far.

Thanks for your help,

Julien.
