I am writing a songbook and I would like to insert guitar chord diagrams in the appropriate positions above the lyrics of each verse. I have found the musixguit
package capable of drawing nice diagrams which I would like to include in my songbook (showing fret numbering for barre chords and possibly tabular notation of the chord) but I am not able to position them in accordance with the lyrics.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{musixguit}
\begin{document}
\raiseguitar {14}
\NOtes\guitar {Cm $^7$}{2}x-----\gbarre1\gdot33\gdot52
\guitar G{}o-----\gbarre3\gdot25\gdot35\gdot44\en
*Lyrics of the first *verse...
\end{document}
How to place the diagrams above their intended positions (denoted by asterisks)? Would it be possible to define a new command for in-line insertion of predefined chords into the appropriate positions in lyrics like in the following example?
\chord{Cm7}Lyrics of the first \chord{G}verse...
Thank you.

command from thestackengine

extension frommusixtex
(which is loaded by themusixguit
package). I suggest you have a look atgchords
instead – maybe in combination withguitar
