It's simpler than you think it is.  You only need the structure to
descend into once.

\version "2.18.0"

\parallelMusic #'(Vone Vtwo) {
%bar 1
    \repeat volta 2 { d''1 |
                       f'1 |
%bar 2    
                      c''1 |
                      e'1  |
    } g''1 | c''1 |
}

\score { <<
    \new Staff { \Vone }
    \new Staff { \Vtwo }
    >> }
