Harmony analysis

INNA – INNdiA: key and chord analysis

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

Major view

F major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

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

Minor view

D minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

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

Which side does the ear lean to?

Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the D minor side because it opens on Dm and Dm is heard 24 times while F never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from F 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 F or to Dm; 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 F major and its relative D minor (1 flat). 5 different chords appear 60 times in total; 2 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. G# is borrowed from the parallel minor, adding a darker shade to the major side.

Chord movement

Gm Dm Fii → vi Dmiv → iminor plagal ×19

The move to watch is Gm → Dm, heard 19 times. From the Dm side it is iv → i (minor plagal: deep and melancholic); from the F side it reads ii → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

F major pentatonic and D minor pentatonic are the same five notes (F – G – A – C – D): start from F for a brighter phrase, from D for a bluesier one.
Over Gm, land on G, Bb, D — 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.
Over Fm, land on F, Ab, C — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
On G#, follow the chord's notes (G# · B# · D#) rather than the key's scale — it's a borrowed colour.

The song's harmonic story

The first chord is Dm; the ear learns where home is within a second. The backbone is Gm, Dm, Fm, G — ii–vi–i–II from the F side, iv–i–iii–IV from the Dm side. G# briefly darkens the picture: borrowed from the parallel minor. Keep an ear on Gm → Dm (ii → vi in F, iv → i in Dm): minor plagal — deep and melancholic. The final chord is Fm; the ear comes to rest in F.

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.
