Here's a discussion of \relative mode:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/learning/simple-notation

"The easiest way to enter notes is by using \relative mode. In this mode,
the octave is chosen automatically by assuming the following note is always
to be placed closest to the previous note, i.e., it is to be placed in the
octave which is within three staff spaces of the previous note."

And a chord (or other harmonic interval) is created using < > like this:

<c e g>4  <c f a>2

More on chords here:

Cheers,
-Paul
