Em          F                   Em
Kafamın içi alev alev hadi beni durdur
       F              Em
Dönüşü olmayan bi yol buldum
    F                 Em
Sen yine tabi kafanda kurdun
      F          Em
Beni unuttun ama olsun

            Em      F                Em
Bu sefer acımam sus bence arama bi daha
        F                Em
Ne bana ne sana son bu veda
         F               Em
Belki çoktan buldun bi deva
     F                 Em
Beklerim yakışanı bu sana

          F                Em
Kalbi kırılan şişelere döşüyor
         F                Em
Onla yanıyor ama bana dönüyor
          F             Em
Arama diyorum yinede arıyor
           F               Em
Bela ya bu er geç beni buluyor

Em          F                   Em
Kafamın içi alev alev hadi beni durdur
       F              Em
Dönüşü olmayan bi yol buldum

Sen yine tabi kafanda kurdun
      F          Em
Beni unuttun ama olsun

Em         F             Em
Doluyo doluyo gönlümde ziya
          F               Em
Kader buluyor bana bir bedbaht
     F            Em      F            Em
Sana halimi anlatamam çok geç kaldın eyvah

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). 2 different chords appear 48 times in total; 2 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

There's no textbook cadence here; the chords circle around each other in a loop, so the song feels more like a groove than a series of arrivals.

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 Em, land on E, G, B — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over F, land on F, A, C — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story

Starting on Em, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The backbone is Em, F — iii–IV from the C side, v–VI from the Am side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. It closes on Em, letting the C 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.
