Harmony analysis
Barış Kocatürk – Pagan ve Cadı: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Dmaj7 and ends on B7. Its chords belong to both A major and F#m, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
F# minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = D (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = E (natural-minor colour)
- #7 = E# (harmonic-minor leading tone from the V chord)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: we can't honestly pick a side here — the song moves freely between A major and F# minor because A is heard 20 times while F#m never appears and the major V chord points straight at F#m. Try reading the chords both ways and see which feels more like home to you.
Chord degrees: major and relative minor
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to A or to F#m; 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 A major and its relative F# minor (3 sharps). 5 different chords appear 84 times in total; 2 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of F#m brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull. C is borrowed from the parallel minor, adding a darker shade to the major side.
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
- A major pentatonic and F# minor pentatonic are the same five notes (A – B – C# – E – F#): start from A for a brighter phrase, from F# for a bluesier one.
- Over Dmaj7, land on D, F#, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over C#7, land on C#, E#, G# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over A, land on A, C#, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- When C#7 comes, swap the scale's E for E#: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.
- On C, follow the chord's notes (C · E · G) rather than the key's scale — it's a borrowed colour.

The song's harmonic story
The first chord is Dmaj7; the ear learns where home is within a second. The backbone is Dmaj7, C#7, A, B7 — IVmaj7–III7–I–II7 from the A side, VImaj7–V7–III–IV7 from the F#m side. C#7 is the interesting twist: in A it is a chromatic chord (III7), while in F#m it becomes the dominant (V7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Ending on B7, the song seals A 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.
