Aha!  I got it!   The secret was to explicitly name the Staff and Voice
contexts, and use \context instead of \new.

\version "12.0.0"
intro = <<
  \context Staff = "StaffOne" {
    \context Voice = "VoiceOne" {
      c''4 c''
    }
  }
  \context Staff = "StaffTwo" {
    \context Voice = "VoiceTwo" {
      c'4 c'
    }
  }
>>

verseOne = <<
  \context Staff = "StaffOne" {
    \context Voice = "VoiceOne" {
      d''4 d'
    }
  }
  \context Staff = "StaffTwo" {
    \context Voice = "VoiceTwo" {
      d'4 d'
    }
  }
>>

chorus = <<
  \context Staff = "StaffOne" {
    \context Voice = "VoiceOne" {
      e''4 e''
    }
  }
  \context Staff = "StaffTwo" {
    \context Voice = "VoiceTwo" {
      e'4 e'
    }
  }
>>

verseTwo = <<
  \context Staff = "StaffOne" {
    \context Voice = "VoiceOne" {
      f''4 f''
    }
  }
  \context Staff = "StaffTwo" {
    \context Voice = "VoiceTwo" {
      f'4 f'
    }
  }
>>

\score {
  {
    \intro
    \verseOne
    \chorus
    \verseTwo
  }
}
