Try putting the bass notes in \voiceTwo, that way the stems for the 
upper voice will not get in the way and your notes will be perfectly 
aligned:

\score {
        \notes {
                \relative c'
                \context Staff <<
                \context Voice = melody {
                        \voiceOne
                        c'4 e4 g4 e4 a,4 c4
                        f4 c4 b4 d4 g4 d4 c1
                }
                \context Voice = bass {
                        \voiceTwo
                        c,1 f,1 g1 c1
                }
                >>
        }
        \paper { }
}
