% There is no problem with using relative mode, per se.
% You just need to have an explicit \relative for every voice.

% So, instead of something like this,
% where you have to adjust the octaves at the start of each segment

\relative c'' {
    c1
    <<
        { c8 d e f g2 }
        { g,4   b2. }
        { e,8 d c d d2 }
    >>
    c'1
}

% You would use something like this,
% Where each segment is specified, and doesn't interfere what comes after.

\relative c'' {
    c1
    <<
        \relative c'' { c8 d e f g2 }
        \relative c'' { g4   b2. }
        \relative c'  { e8 d c d d2 }
    >>
    c1
}
