With \relative you've activated \notemode. I.e. you now could write
notes, rests and all the other stuff one can usually find in a Staff.
But there is no note called g:m
This is a chord. So you need \chordmode _here_ and not later at the
time you call progChords.

P.S.
Please write tiny examples as described here:

No need for all the header, layout, TimeSignature-stuff.
A tiny example for showing your problem would have been:
What' wrong with:
\version "2.16.1"
{ g:m }
But perhaps you would have seen yourself, why it doesn't work, while
creating such tiny code.
