How about:

\version "2.18.2"

chorus = \new Voice = "chorus" { c'1 \break d' \break }
chorLyr = \new Lyrics \lyricsto "chorus" { cho -- rus }

verse = \new Voice = "verse" { e'2 e' \break f' f' }
verseI = \new Lyrics \lyricsto "verse" { verse o -- n -- e }
verseII = \new Lyrics \lyricsto "verse" { verse t -- w -- o }

<<
  \new Staff { \chorus \verse }
  \chorLyr
  \verseI
  \verseII
>>

Cheers,
