Ray, while I can tell you are further along as a player than I, my issue with Bm is identical. This thread gives me a plan to work on and some good alternative options. |

Wild Horses is actually how I nailed my Bm. Since it was fairly easy to sing and play otherwise, i forced it. And I did try the 7th fret for awhile. Which has now been awhile. I think that didn’t work back then. I play it now, and the two Bm positions sound very similar, but I can’t get that song rhythm to sound suitable going from an open G or a bar G to the 7th. It’s obviously some sonic psychological disorder I’ve got going on.

I like all of these songs so it’s no bother to be playing them a LOT these days - they’re really good practice...

It might help to practice the Bm without the barre. Just do the Am shape using the middle ring and pinky. Practice switching from that position to open chords and back again. (Until your fingers fall off).
Fretting the barre, once the muscle memory of the other fingers is better, will be easy.
