Reading over the documentation on changing the tie shape for ties in chords I gather that it is not possible to do this at all:
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/modifying-shapes#modifying-ties-and-slurs It is not possible to modify shapes of ties or slurs by changing the control-points property if there are multiple ties or slurs at the same musical moment – the \tweak command will also not work in this case. However, the tie-configuration property of TieColumn can be overridden to set start line and direction as required. I think the documents should be more up front about that. Saying it is not possible to do it one way, or another way, and then going on to describe something else that *is* possible is a bit of weasel-wording. Unless, that is, there is actually some LilyPond syntax to do this.
