Harmony analysis
Yıldızlardan Düştük – Ben Körmüşüm: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Em and ends on D. Its chords belong to both G major and Em, so every chord below is read both ways.
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 it opens on Em and Em is heard 9 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 35 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
- Cmaj7 D GIVmaj7 → VIV → V EmVImaj7 → VIIVI → VII ×8
- D Em GV → videceptive cadence EmVII → iAeolian arrival ×3
- Bm Em Giii → vi Emv → inatural-minor cadence ×3
The move to watch is Cmaj7 → D, heard 8 times. From the Em side it is VImaj7 → VII (VI → VII: the rising step that heads for the tonic); from the G side it reads IVmaj7 → V (IV → V: the lift that builds tension before home). 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 Em, land on E, G, B — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Cmaj7, land on C, E, G — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over D, land on D, F#, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
The opening Em lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are Em, Cmaj7, D, Bm; read them as vi–IVmaj7–V–iii in G or i–VImaj7–VII–v in Em. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Cmaj7 → D (IVmaj7 → V in G, VImaj7 → VII in Em): VI → VII — the rising step that heads for the tonic. The final chord is D; the ear comes to rest in G.
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.
