Well, it isn't really, its just that being so short it fits on one line.
If you want to make it more spread out horizontally you would need to
tell LilyPond that, which would mean reading the LilyPond docs. You can,
within Denemo say that you want the whole thing in a larger typeface
which will force it on to two lines (Edit->score properties).
