Ok, there'll be a kludge for the logically correct version in pl28:
input/test/chord-klugde.ly:
\score{
<
\type Staff \notes\relative c''{
c c c c
% coda-klugde: let volta span only one bar
\property Staff.voltaSpannerDuration = "1"
\repeat 5 { d d d d }
\alternative { { e e e e f f f f }
{ g g g g } }
}
\type Lyrics \lyrics{
intro1
\repeat 5 {}
\alternative <
{ chorus1 one verse1 }
{ chorus1 two verse1 }
{ chorus1 three verse }
{ chorus1 four verse }
>
five1
}

}
