Dm                Bbmaj7
Sevdim öyle güzel yazdan sonbahara
Gm                    Am
Geçerken dökmedim hiç yaprak toprağa
Dm                  Bbmaj7
Senden gelen gelsin hay hay ne varsa
Gm               Am
Geçmez gecelerim başka rüyayla

Dm                  Bbmaj7
Yok ki yanıma gelip seni bir soran
Gm            Am
Anlatamadım halimiz oldu duman

Dm                  Bbmaj7              Gm
Sır gibi sakla beni bi kapı bi duvar odaya
           Am
Seneler geçse bulamasınlar
Dm                   Bbmaj7             Gm
Hevesim geçmez hiç sürekli gel uzan yanıma
             Am
Geceler dile gelse utanmam

Harmony analysis

Berkay – Sır: key and chord analysis

The song opens on Dm and ends on Am. 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 5 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). 4 different chords appear 20 times in total; 4 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. Am Dm Fiii → vi Dmv → inatural-minor cadence ×4

The move to watch is Am → Dm, heard 4 times. From the Dm side it is v → i (natural-minor cadence: gentle, modal arrival); from the F side it reads iii → 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 Dm, land on D, F, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over Bbmaj7, land on Bb, D, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over Gm, land on G, Bb, D — 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 Dm; the ear learns where home is within a second. Dm, Bbmaj7, Gm, Am carry the song: vi–IVmaj7–ii–iii relative to F, i–VImaj7–iv–v relative to Dm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Am → Dm (iii → vi in F, v → i in Dm): natural-minor cadence — gentle, modal arrival. Ending on Am, the song seals F 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.
