As james said, it's not totally clear what you need help with. Where
in the documentation did you paste it from? Did you alter it after
pasting?

The troublemaker appears to be this bit:

  >>
  \new Lyrics \with {
    \override LyricText.extra-offset = #'(0 . 8.6)
    \override LyricExtender.extra-offset = #'(0 . 8.6)
    \override LyricHyphen.extra-offset = #'(0 . 8.6)
  } \lyricsto "voc" { La la -- la __ _ la }
>>

The opening bracket is a syntax error: it should be "<<", not ">>".
Also, \lyricsto "voc" is referring to something nonexistent.

That's all I can figure out for now.

Regards,
Nathan
