Hi all,

I have been given a score for voice & guitar. The guitar sometimes is on
one staff, sometimes two. That's not a problem. I can optimize it away.

The voice is the issue. Only the first verse is to be written out with
music. The rest are to be words only. The composer wants the words to be in
place as if there were a staff there, but without a staff. In other words,
the lyrics have to be above the guitar, in the vocal rhythm.

Is there a good way to do this? Enter them on the page as text? All 4
layers are used in the guitar part, so there's nothing to attach to on the
lower staff. If I create a single-line staff for that part, but hide
everything with a staff style, will lyrics go away (I haven't tried that yet)?

I'm looking for a way to keep the lyrics usable in case he changes his mind
later and wants the music with the lyrics. (I know, I know...)

Advice welcome!

Dennis
