Hint 3
Given where the numbers fall, you might also want to read between the lines.
Solution
Final Solution: Although it looks like sheet music in some ways, this puzzle is self-contained. The only similarity is that letters fall both on and between each line. So "A" is above the top line and "B" would be on it. The numbers give you the order of extraction. The plaintext reads: "Finances Department."
