How to find the just the right Clip BTW Merry Christmas

I have started to unleash the power of Sonar's Instrument Track Clips using Soft Synths to create backing tracks ... very very simple ones.  I find it almost impossible, however, to get the specific chord progression and rhythms out to the 1000s of midi and audio clips available.  For example, I am trying to get the chord progression for What's You Name? I Have Seen You Before!  I think it is  the F Dm A# C  in a 6/8 time signature.  If I were able to play a keyboard properly  it would be no sweat ... just record it.  However, after spending quite a bit of time searching I am left to the opinion that no such progression exists as a preset clip...  in any key.  Is that a valid conclusion or is there a reasonably straight forward way to find the chord progression that one needs without resorting to auditioning each MIDI or audio clip?

    Hi Conrad.
     
    Can't you just enter the notes you want manually into the PRV?

    Thanks  Danny.  I have BiaB; but, the  resulting sounds  are very structured and appear as unreal ... at least to my ears!  I was hoping that there was an online library that had various types of performance quality Doo Wop sounds just as  I believe there are for Jazz and Rock etc. Maybe there is!   Again I am just getting started on this path  so any help is very much appreciated.
