How about this? First two chords of Elgar cello concerto:
\relative c {
\clef bass
<<
{
\voiceOne
<e b'>2
<g e'>2
}
\new Voice {
\voiceTwo
<g, e'>16 s16 s8 s4
<e b'>16 s16 s8 s4
}
>>
}
Basic idea is using multiple voices to represent the different chord
parts, and hiding rests by using the 's' spacer (invisible) rest. A
little clunky with quite a lot of syntactic cruft; I don't know
lilypond well enough to say if there's a better way of doing it.
