try something like this:
\notes \relative c'' {
% SNIP
% NOTES BELOW ORIGINAL NOTE
<< { c1 } \\ { \tiny s4 b a b } >>
% OR FOR NOTES HIGHER THAN ORIGINAL NOTE
<< { \tiny s4 d e d } \\ { c1 } >>
% SNIP
}
try the two snippets, and read the section in the manual on polyphony
{Lilypond|Notation Manual|Polyphony}.
