Can you run a relay, and let the button or switch ground to the chassis or battery?

not quite sure what you mean. so a three prong horn relay, one wire to the S selonoid or 6 volt power one to the B button, and the blue and white horn wire from the light switch body to the H on the relay for horn is that right?

Most auto parts stores ought to have some type of accessory switch/button you could use. All you need is ground.

Well, to start with, are we speaking of an original horn? If so, what completes the circuit to make it "sound" is by completing the ground. Therefore you don't need any special horn buttton, just make a small jumper wire to go from one terminal on the horn switch over to a ground, and then use the other terminal to connect to the horn wire.
