I think that you need* to treat them as two voices (as I've shown
above). I'm not certain what <e2 {r4 r4 r8}> means, but I don't know
anything about guitars.

* of course, the message you got was a warning rather than an error
message. If you like the output that it produces, then feel free to
ignore all the warnings.  :)
