Default Q: Help Modifying Lyrics Window to Chord Region Sheet

There's a Cockos script Scripts\Cockos\lyrics.lua
I know I always ask too hard stuff but I'm just looking at modifying lyrics.lua to work as a chord/region viewer.
It will have 4 measures across and each beat of that measure can be edited with a chord name that will edit
or insert that region and display that region's color.
It needs to work like the gif under.
I don't mind making a donation if someone would like to help out.
This is to be added to ReaTrak https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=212645


The Editing mode in lyrics.lua lets you edit each beat so you can edit each beat of each measure and that will edit or inset the region/chord name, the measures will be the region color and the current playing measure will be highlighted, it will need bigger fonts maybe use the existing drop downs for font and size so you can use a music chord style font (see bottom pics):

Since you are more interested in this, I would suggest to take this script, modify it and put (and then edit/support if need) to ReaTeam repo using webform Cfillion made: https://reapack.com/upload/reascript

So then I can remove it from my repo, since I don`t interested following features like that. It was done this way with LBX Chaos Engine by Leon Bradley coming from mpl_Randomize Track FX Parameter.lua. He made an awesome stuff, although what I did originally was very limited, ugly and badly coded.

Thanks, I will try and make it self contained as at the moment it depends on a lot of external scripts for the added functions. I could also make a basic one without the added features.
Thanks again for all your help.
