How about this?  (I only altered the first one)

\version "2.12.2"

\relative c'' {

<c'-4>16-\tweak #'extra-offset #'(-1.0 . 0)^\markup { \smaller{ ( \raise 
#'0.5 \smaller \musicglyph #"accidentals.natural" ) } }

<e,-0>
   <a-1>-\tweak #'extra-offset #'(-0.5 . -4.3)^\markup { ( }
   -\tweak #'extra-offset #'(0.5 . -1.8)^\markup { \teeny \musicglyph
#"accidentals.natural" }
   -\tweak #'extra-offset #'(1.3 . 0.8)^\markup { ) } <fis-2>

}
