I don't know what you want to achieve - you don't provide a minimal
working example and don't say what you expect it to look like.

However I assume you mean this:
\version "2.19.55"

\relative c' { e,8 <b'' e> <d a>16  b 8. g,16 a b d d b e' e }

Note that I changed the double "<<...>>" to "<...>" (the former are for
parallel music and the later are for chords which I assume you mean) and
most importantly removed the space in front of the 16.

HTH,
Michael
