Hi,

I've been promoted from singing the Tenor voice to playing Percussion in
our choir.

To help me, and perhaps other people, playing the percussion rhythms, I
tried creating Lilypond files with just the lyrics, aligned to the beats of
the melody, and the percussion staff in it. I thought I had a working file
for one song, but it totally failed on another one...

I tried adapting the Leadsheet example, and found that using \new Devnull
instead of \new Staff will get rid of the melody Staff, but then the lyrics
don't align with the rhythms any more... at least, not in my second try
with this setup!

Before I dive into creating an MWE, is there anyone on the list who has a
working template for:

- Lyrics (either in full measure bits, or each set to their own note)
- Melody (I have a lot of lyrics and melodies already set in Lilypond, so
being able to re-use this would be great!)
- PercussionStaff
