If you expand, which will make one chord in one measure into one chord over two measures, then you must double the tempo so the chord sounds for the same amount of time as before. Try it.

You will probably want to adjust other things, like the style or time bases, but if all you want is more places for chords, this will do it. Don't give up. Tell us a specific example or post the song here and we will help.
