Aloha.

I have a guitar and vocal song with 6 stanzas and a chorus and outro
with lyrics.  I would like to jump to the chorus after the 2nd and 4th
stanzas and return to the 3rd and 5th, respectively, coming out of the
chorus.  Since I'm not formally trained in notation, I don' t know how
this should be approached (or if it's possible).  Here is the structure
of the song.  Any advice is most welcome.  I've tried inserting markup
text but haven't been successful although this would be my ad hoc approach.

\new Staff {
  \key a \minor
 { \GuitarStrum \break  \GuitarStrum \break  \GuitarStrum \break  }
  \new Voice = "verse"    { \Song.Voice.Verse   \bar "||"  }
  \new Voice = "chorus" { \Song.Voice.Chorus \bar "||" }
  \new Voice = "outro"    { \Song.Voice.Outro   \bar ":|." }
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "verse" { \Song.Lyrics.VerseI \break  }
\new Lyrics
  <<
  \lyricsto "verse"   { \Song.Lyrics.VerseII }
  \lyricsto "chorus" { \Song.Lyrics.Chorus  }
  \lyricsto "outro"    { \Song.Lyrics.Outro }
  >>
\new Lyrics  \lyricsto "verse" { \Song.Lyrics.VerseIII }
\new Lyrics
  <<
  \lyricsto "verse" { \Song.Lyrics.VerseIV }
%  \lyricsto "chorus" { \Song.Lyrics.Chorus }
  >>
\new Lyrics  \lyricsto "verse"  { \Song.Lyrics.VerseV \break  }
\new Lyrics  \lyricsto "verse"  { \Song.Lyrics.VerseVI \break }
>>
\layout { }
\midi { }
}
