Hi Lucas,

e.g.
%%% SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.18.2"
\language"english"
upper = {
c'1
R1
}
lower = {
\tag #'extenders { c'8-\tag #'extenders-only -( d' e' f' g' f' e' d'-\tag
#'extenders-only -) }
c'4 g' c'2
}
theLyrics = \lyricmode {
a __
}
<<
\new Staff <<
\new Voice = "notes"
\removeWithTag #'extenders-only \upper
\new NullVoice = "extenders"
\keepWithTag #'(extenders extenders-only) << \upper \lower >>
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "extenders" \theLyrics
>>
\new Staff \removeWithTag #'extenders-only \lower
>>
%%% SNIPPET ENDS
Cheers,
Kieren.
