Hi David,

I would probably write it this way, but there are other possibilities
(maybe start the voiceOne already on the second beat of the first measure).

\relative c' {
  \key g \major
  <e c'!>8.( <c a'>16) <c a'>2^( <bes g'^~>4 |
  <<
    { \voiceOne g'4 f) }
    \new Voice = "voiceTwo" {
      \voiceTwo
      a,2
    }
  >>
  \oneVoice
  c4( d) |
}

Cheers,
Xavier
