Hi All,
When I render the following music on Lilypond, I get the staff on top, the
chords below the staff, and the lyrics below the chords. [...]

Hi, Romel,

both ChordNames and Lyrics denote contexts which "live" outside a Staff. A staff may contain several voices of notes, but - as you expect - the chords or lyric texts should be above or below.
Thus, take them out to the same nesting level as Staff:

chd = \chordmode { c1 a:m }
mus = \relative c'' { c4 d4 e2 | a4 b4 c2 }
lyr = \lyricmode { See the E, A bu -- sy }

\score {
  <<
    \new ChordNames \chd
    \new Staff <<
      \new Voice = "one" \mus
    >>
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \lyr
  >>
}


HTH,
Alexander
