Am     E
 Canım çok acıyor
                 Am
Hiçbir şey yapmak istemiyorum
      E
Halim yok kanıyorum
            Am
Yorgun akorlar yazıyorum

Am  E  E  Am

Am                 E
Bittim ben de tükendim
                Am
Fazlasıyla yorgunum
Dm          Am               E
Kanıyor yaralar, açılıyor anılar
         Am
Bense vazgeçemiyorum

E           Am
Kurtulmam gerek
F                      E
Sıkıldım anlatamıyorum kendimi, derdimi
Dm               Am                    E
Gözlerine mi yazayım, sözlerine mi kanayım
                 Am
Hasretine mi yanayım

Dm          Am                   E
Hadi al tekrar, hadi al tekrar beni
                Am
Kollarının arasına
Dm           Am              E
Acılar durmaz, anılarsa sahtekar
            Am
Basıyor yarasına, kalbimin


Bugünler seni aramaz

O kadar boktan bir durumdayım ki onlar da anlamaz

Acılar tekrar sahneye çıkar, başroldeyse yüreğim var

Takmış maskeni, rol yapar

Harmony analysis

arhlss – Yorgun Akorlar: key and chord analysis

The song opens on Am and ends on Am. Its chords belong to both C major and Am, so every chord below is read both ways.

Major view

C major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

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

Minor view

A minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

b6 = F (the minor's melancholy)
b7 = G (natural-minor colour)
#7 = G# (harmonic-minor leading tone from the V chord)

Which side does the ear lean to?

Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the A minor side because it both starts and finishes on Am, Am is heard 16 times while C never appears and the major V chord points straight at Am. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from C 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 C or to Am; 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 C major and its relative A minor (no sharps or flats). 4 different chords appear 32 times in total; 3 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Am brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from C, the same E is V/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Am.

Chord movement

E Am CV/vi → vi AmV → iharmonic-minor cadence ×9
Dm Am Cii → vi Amiv → iminor plagal ×4

The move to watch is E → Am, heard 9 times. From the Am side it is V → i (harmonic-minor cadence: the major V resolves dramatically); from the C side it reads V/vi → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

C major pentatonic and A minor pentatonic are the same five notes (C – D – E – G – A): start from C for a brighter phrase, from A for a bluesier one.
Over Am, land on A, C, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over E, land on E, G#, B — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Dm, land on D, F, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
When E comes, swap the scale's G for G#: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.

The song's harmonic story

The opening Am lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are Am, E, Dm, F; read them as vi–V/vi–ii–IV in C or i–V–iv–VI in Am. E is the interesting twist: in C it is a chromatic chord (V/vi), while in Am it becomes the dominant (V) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on E → Am (V/vi → vi in C, V → i in Am): harmonic-minor cadence — the major V resolves dramatically. It closes on Am, letting the Am side have the last word.

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.
