Padding lists for accurate plotting

I have the following data which is in the form of irregular/non rectangular arrays



list1 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12


To transpose it for plotting, I have to use (because of the irregular shape)



list2 = Flatten[list1, 2, 1]


This is now a $3times1$ column.
I want to plot this data, So I use the ListLinePlot as



ListLinePlot[list2, DataRange -> 1, 3, Frame -> True] 


The three rows are plotted as three curves, but the problem is that the upper two curves which correspond to the second and third row of list2 also start from 1 on the x-axis.? Shouldn't they start from 2 instead of 1? I thought I could use PadLeft or PadRight with empty entries to the left or right of the last two (2 element) rows of list2 (to make them 6 element rows, like the first row of list2) to force the two curves to start from 2, but I failed. Could someone tell any workaround?

    Does ListLinePlot[Transpose[PadRight[list1]], DataRange -> 1, 3] do what you want?

    @J.M.isslightlypensive Thanks. But it gives zeros on right and left which actually do not do the trick, however, if they are somehow empty, would do the trick.
