Use the noquote option to get rid of the extra indentation:
\begin[noquote]{lilypond} ... \end{lilypond}

This question has popped up a number of times since Werner Lemberg
improved the TeX code output from Lilypond. At least when using
lilypond-book together with LaTeX documents, I have never seen any
example where I didn't want the noquote option.

How about changing lilypond-book and making noquote the default?
Of course, it's always a problem to make incompatible changes, but
that's more or less what we did at the time when the noquote option was
introduced. Comments?
