I need some help. The song is It Came Upon The Midnight Clear, key of Bb. The progression I am having trouble with is:

I - III7 - VIm - III7 - VIm - V - II7 - V

How would you do it?

The tune as I have it in the "peace on the earth" bridge is this

3 3(7) 6- 6- 5 2(7) 5 5(7) 1

Hope this helps

Your III cord is available on fret one using 'A' pedal and 'F' lever. The VIm same fret, 'B,C' pedals down, striking strings 4,5,and6.

Thanks for all the response, on the forum and by email!

I did come up with a work around, as I was using the chord zone I = 6, IV = 6AB, V = 8AB.

I tried the "phrase" of 5AB, 6A, 5AB, 6A, 8AB

working out to D, Gm, D Gm, F.
