Adding Refrain Lyrics So They Highlight During Note Chase for Every Verse
User Tip #: 94 Offered By: Anonymous Last Modified: N/A

Add the verse lyrics to the upper staff as usual. Do not include the refrain lyrics after any of the verses.
Add the refrain lyrics to the bottom staff, preceding them with enough underscores to compensate for the number of syllables in the verse portion of score.
Set the staff lyric alignment to top and adjust the offset until the refrain is centered between the staves (this will be a negative offset).

When NoteWorthy Composer plays the score it will highlight the refrain on every verse pass.
