the issue here is that you are using `\chords` for this. As you can see with 
`\displayLilyMusic\chords { c }` `\chords` is a shorthand for changing to 
chordmode and creating a new chord name context in one go (similar to `\drums` 
for `\new DrumStaff \drummode ...`).

But this means that when you do

<< \new ChordNames \chords ... \new Staff >>

this will create two ChordName contexts, and the Staff is only created then, 
thus defaulting below the chord names. If instead you have

<< \new ChordNames { \global \chords ... } \new Staff ... >>

the second ChordName context is created after the Staff, thus being placed 
below it.

Of course the proper solution is to replace `\chords ...` by `\chordmode ...`.

Cheers,
Valentin
