Attached is your file, slightly modified:
- Removed the \key setting from the "global" variable because
it causes a warning when used in the tab staff context
- Moved the "global" variable inside the respective staff
- Changed the setup in the \score block to achieve your goal
- Added a Voice context where the lyrics can be directed to
Also, I suggest that you look in the manual about \chordmode
before you start to use text markup to that effect.
Best,
Gilles
