        No, sorry for being unclear :).  I want alternative 1, then
alternative 2.  I've attached one file that shows the kind of problem.  I
haven't attempted to use any alternative tags, I've just used a Lyrics above
the music to mark the different options, but it's not as clear as I'd like.  

        Hope this makes it clearer.  

        :)
