May I suggest that you take out all of the overrides, etc. from the various parts, and just have the notes for the various parts. Then, when you combine the notes into a score, you put all of the overrides into the score definition. Also, may I suggest that in the chords you use \repeat unfold and set chordChanges = ##t. You have some timing errors in your code. You have eliminated bar checks in the lyrics. That is a dangerous practice. Keep the bar checks in and use the lyric durations as appropriate. I've attached a partially reworked file to show what I'm thinking of. it's not right yet because of the bar check errors, but it show how I would do it.
