Harmony analysis
Kubilay Karça – Susmayı Öğrendim: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Bm7 and ends on Bm7. Its chords belong to both Ab major and Fm, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
F minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = Db (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = Eb (natural-minor colour)
- #7 = E (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 F minor side because the major V chord points straight at Fm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Ab 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 Ab or to Fm; 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 Ab major and its relative F minor (4 flats). 6 different chords appear 45 times in total; 0 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Fm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull. Gmaj7 acts as a secondary dominant, briefly pointing at another chord of the key.
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
- Ab major pentatonic and F minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Ab – Bb – C – Eb – F): start from Ab for a brighter phrase, from F for a bluesier one.
- Over Bm7, land on B, D, F# — 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 Am7, land on A, C, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- When Cmaj7 comes, swap the scale's Eb for E: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.

The song's harmonic story
The opening Bm7 lays a solid floor for everything that follows. Bm7, Cmaj7, Am7, D carry the song: biii7–IIImaj7–bii7–#IV relative to Ab, #iv7–Vmaj7–#iii7–#VI relative to Fm. Cmaj7 is the interesting twist: in Ab it is a chromatic chord (IIImaj7), while in Fm it becomes the dominant (Vmaj7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. It closes on Bm7, letting the Ab side have the last word.
