Hello all.  I am a new user seeking assistance with aligning upbows and downbows so that the bows are all aligned horizontally at the same height for easier readability.  Thank you.

How about this:

%%%%%%%%%

\version "2.18.2"  % necessary for upgrading to future LilyPond versions.

\header{

  title = "Here Comes the Sun"

  subtitle = "Original music and lyrics written by George Harrison 1969."

 

}

\relative {

  \set Staff.instrumentName = "Capo VII"

  \key e \major

  \override Script.staff-padding = #3 % <--- Adjust to taste

  a'8^\downbow^"D" <e' a cis>\downbow a\upbow b\downbow cis\upbow <a, e'> a' a, |

  e' cis' b <a, e'> a' <a, e'>

}

%%%%%%%%%

HTH,

Abraham
