Yoruldum alınmaktan, kırılmaktan
                  D7
Yıllar yılı peşinde 
  Cm                     D7
Kovuldum cennetten, cehennemden

Harmony analysis

Sezen Aksu – Hazan: key and chord analysis

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

Major view

Bb major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

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

Minor view

G minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

b6 = Eb (the minor's melancholy)
b7 = F (natural-minor colour)
#7 = F# (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 G minor side because it opens on Gm, Gm is heard 9 times against 1 for Bb and the major V chord points straight at Gm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Bb 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 Bb or to Gm; 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 Bb major and its relative G minor (2 flats). 10 different chords appear 28 times in total; 7 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Gm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from Bb, the same D7 is V7/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Gm. G acts as a secondary dominant, briefly pointing at another chord of the key.

Chord movement

D7 Gm BbV7/vi → visecondary resolution GmV7 → iharmonic-minor cadence ×2
Dm Gm Bbiii → vi Gmv → inatural-minor cadence ×2
Cm D7 Bbii → V7/vi Gmiv → V7iv → V ×2
D7 G BbV7/vi → V/iisecondary resolution GmV7 → V/iv ×1
Cm F Bbii → Vii → V Gmiv → VII ×1

The move to watch is D7 → Gm, heard 2 times. From the Gm side it is V7 → i (harmonic-minor cadence: the major V resolves dramatically); from the Bb side it reads V7/vi → vi (secondary resolution: D7 resolves a fourth up to Gm). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

Bb major pentatonic and G minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Bb – C – D – F – G): start from Bb for a brighter phrase, from G for a bluesier one.
Over Gm, land on G, Bb, D — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Cm, land on C, Eb, G — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over D7, land on D, F#, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
When D7 comes, swap the scale's F for F#: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.

The song's harmonic story

The opening Gm lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are Gm, Cm, D7, Dm; read them as vi–ii–V7/vi–iii in Bb or i–iv–V7–v in Gm. D7 is the interesting twist: in Bb it is a chromatic chord (V7/vi), while in Gm it becomes the dominant (V7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on D7 → Gm (V7/vi → vi in Bb, V7 → i in Gm): harmonic-minor cadence — the major V resolves dramatically. It closes on Dm, letting the Bb 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.
