Harmony analysis
Burak Bulut – Karaca: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Dm7 and ends on Dm7. Its chords belong to both F major and Dm, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
D minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = Bb (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = C (natural-minor colour)
- #7 = C# (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 D minor side because it both starts and finishes on Dm, Dm is heard 10 times while F never appears and the major V chord points straight at Dm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from F 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 F or to Dm; 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 F major and its relative D minor (1 flat). 4 different chords appear 31 times in total; 3 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Dm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from F, the same A7 is V7/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Dm.
Chord movement
- A7 Dm7 FV7/vi → vi7secondary resolution DmV7 → i7harmonic-minor cadence ×7
The move to watch is A7 → Dm7, heard 7 times. From the Dm side it is V7 → i7 (harmonic-minor cadence: the major V resolves dramatically); from the F side it reads V7/vi → vi7 (secondary resolution: A7 resolves a fourth up to Dm7). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- F major pentatonic and D minor pentatonic are the same five notes (F – G – A – C – D): start from F for a brighter phrase, from D for a bluesier one.
- Over Dm7, land on D, F, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over C, land on C, E, G — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Bbmaj7, land on Bb, D, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- When A7 comes, swap the scale's C for C#: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.

The song's harmonic story
The opening Dm7 lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are Dm7, C, Bbmaj7, A7; read them as vi7–V–IVmaj7–V7/vi in F or i7–VII–VImaj7–V7 in Dm. A7 is the interesting twist: in F it is a chromatic chord (V7/vi), while in Dm it becomes the dominant (V7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on A7 → Dm7 (V7/vi → vi7 in F, V7 → i7 in Dm): harmonic-minor cadence — the major V resolves dramatically. Ending on Dm7, the song seals Dm 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.
