In this version I've changed the order of expressions to make them to be voices 1,2 and 3 with no need to explicitly invoking new voice commands. \score { \new Staff { \time 4/4 \relative c' { << { s2 s4 e' ~ e1 } \\ { < g,, d' >1 < c g' > } \\ { b'4 \times 2/3 {c8 b c} d2 _~ d4 d8 c g4 c } >> } } } I think the overlapping you obtained came from different noteheads on the same column, a warning that was ignored. That would be equivalent to have \new Voice ="3" { \voiceThree b'4 \times 2/3 {c8 b c} d2 ~ d4 d8 c g4 c } \new Voice ="1" { \voiceOne s2 s4 e ~ e1 } \new Voice ="2" { \voiceTwo < g,, d' >1 < c g' > } but the tie in voice 3 still has to be tweaked.
