Gm                 Abm
Ne güne ne geceye ne de binbir heceye
Gm                          
Koskoca şehire sığamıyorum
                    Abm
Biriktim uzun zaman doldum taştım
Gm
Gök gürültülü yağamıyorum

Gm                Abm
Kara kara düşünüp suçları bölüşüp
Gm                          
Kendi kendime konuşuyorum
                   Abm
Tam alışırken yanlızlığıma
Gm
Anılarla savaşıyorum

Gm                Abm
Özledim onu çok iyi mi kötü mü
Gm                         
Benim kadar canı yanıyor mu
                 Abm
Aradım kapalı evde de yoktu
Gm                          
Acaba geceleri geziyor mu

Fm              Cm
Bir ihtimalin peşine takılıp
Dm                  Eb
Mahvoluyorum haberi yok mu?

Gm
Harcadım hepsini kalbimin artık

Ayrılık o kadar ediyor mu?

Analysis

The key pair is Eb major and its relative C minor (3 flats). 6 different chords appear 20 times in total; 4 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Abm is borrowed from the parallel minor, adding a darker shade to the major side.

Chord movement

Fm Cm Ebii → vi Cmiv → iminor plagal ×1

The move to watch is Fm → Cm, heard once. From the Eb side it reads ii → vi; from the Cm side it is iv → i (minor plagal: deep and melancholic). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

Eb major pentatonic and C minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Eb – F – G – Bb – C): start from Eb for a brighter phrase, from C for a bluesier one.
Over Gm, land on G, Bb, D — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Abm, land on Ab, Cb, Eb — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Fm, land on F, Ab, C — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
On Abm, follow the chord's notes (Ab · Cb · Eb) rather than the key's scale — it's a borrowed colour.

The song's harmonic story

The first chord is Gm; the ear learns where home is within a second. The backbone is Gm, Abm, Fm, Cm — iii–iv–ii–vi from the Eb side, v–vi–iv–i from the Cm side. Abm briefly darkens the picture: minor iv — borrowed from the parallel minor. Keep an ear on Fm → Cm (ii → vi in Eb, iv → i in Cm): minor plagal — deep and melancholic. Ending on Gm, the song seals Eb as home.
