I agree Norton Expanded Styles are currently the best way. But it's not the ONLY way.

You can increase the duration of your song by twice, then change the style and try to find a good fit. Now you have over two measures what was formerly in one, so you have eight possible chords in those two measures. The notation won't be right, but often the sound can work.

Or - maybe that's what you meant by 'built" rather than 'purchased'?
