You need to push the RehearsalMark to the right, otherwise it'll have to 
be offset vertically.

%%%%
\version "2.19.82"
<< \new ChordNames \chordmode { d2:m a2:m
     \override Score.RehearsalMark.self-alignment-X = #-1
     \override Score.RehearsalMark.Y-offset = #0
     \mark \markup \italic "etc." }
   \new Staff {b2 c'2 b2 c'2} >>
%%%%

Here is another way to achieve what you want without messing with 
RehearsalMarks:

%%%%
\version "2.19.82"
<< \new ChordNames \chordmode { d2:m a2:m
     \once \override ChordName.text =
       \markup \roman \italic "etc." c1 }
   \new Staff {b2 c'2 b2 c'2} >>
%%%%

Note that this requires a dummy ChordName, but it guarantees that it 
will line up properly with other elements.
