Add arbitrary chords

Hello!

Request: I need to add arbitrary chords when borrowed chords and secondary chords don’t fulfill the needs.

Example:
I’m studying the chord progression of the song “The Answer Lies Within” from Dream Theater (Gm key) and there is a chord I couldn’t use on Hookpad on the following chord progression is:

Eb-Ebm-Bm (source)

I couldn’t find any way to add the “Ebm” chord. It is the VI degree of the scale and I tried:

1. Borrowed chord from Major: I got “em”
2. vii of: I got “edim”
3. Lots of combinations of invertions, sus, add/omit etc.

Thanks in advance for your attention!
