Harmony analysis

Devran İskender – Melek: key and chord analysis

The song opens on Bm7 and ends on Bm. Its chords belong to both G major and Em, so every chord below is read both ways.

Major view

G major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

  • 7 = F# (leading tone, pulls home)
  • 4 = C (the note that leans on the 3rd)

Minor view

E minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

  • b6 = C (the minor's melancholy)
  • b7 = D (natural-minor colour)

Which side does the ear lean to?

Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the E minor side because Em is heard 4 times while G never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from G major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Chord degrees: major and relative minor

Show the degrees above the chords — relative to G or to Em; comparing both readings is a practice of its own.

Every chord of the key, listed 1 to 7 separately for each key. Chords played in the song show how often they appear; chords from outside the scale sit next to their own degree.

Analysis

The key pair is G major and its relative E minor (1 sharp). 5 different chords appear 32 times in total; 5 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Everything stays inside one scale, which is why the song is easy to follow by ear.

Chord movement

  1. Am7 Em Gii7 → vi Emiv7 → iminor plagal ×2
  2. C Em GIV → vi EmVI → iVI → i ×2

The move to watch is Am7 → Em, heard 2 times. From the Em side it is iv7 → i (minor plagal: deep and melancholic); from the G side it reads ii7 → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

  • G major pentatonic and E minor pentatonic are the same five notes (G – A – B – D – E): start from G for a brighter phrase, from E for a bluesier one.
  • Over Bm7, land on B, D, F# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over C, land on C, E, G — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over Am7, land on A, C, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song on the circle of fifths

  • Played in the song — chord of the key
  • Played — the minor's harmonic V or a secondary dominant
  • Played — borrowed or outside chord
  • Home region: IV–I–V and ii–vi–iii

Empty slices are chords the song doesn't use.

    The song's harmonic story

    The first chord is Bm7; the ear learns where home is within a second. Bm7, C, Am7, Em carry the song: iii7–IV–ii7–vi relative to G, v7–VI–iv7–i relative to Em. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Am7 → Em (ii7 → vi in G, iv7 → i in Em): minor plagal — deep and melancholic. Ending on Bm, the song seals G as home.

    This analysis is generated from the song's chords by akorculuk's harmony engine using consistent rules. When you change key, the degrees stay the same; only the chord names change.
