You're making it too complicated. Try to add the following:
versechords = \chords { e2:m d4 c2. } %etc,
and replace your current score section with the following:
\score {
<<
\versechords
\context ChoirStaff <<
\context Voice = sop \Soprano
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "sop" \soptext
\context Voice = ooo \Chor
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "ooo" \chortext
>>
>>
}
Also, in the "ooo" section, you could replace "Oo-" with "Oo __" (two
underscores), that will produce nice extenders under the whole chord
passage.

b:sus4 is probably what you're after.
