Harmony analysis
Erdem Ergün – Gel Dedim: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Bbm and ends on F. Its chords belong to both Db major and Bbm, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
Bb minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = Gb (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = Ab (natural-minor colour)
- #7 = A (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 Bb minor side because it opens on Bbm, Bbm is heard 11 times while Db never appears and the major V chord points straight at Bbm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Db major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Show the degrees above the chords — relative to Db or to Bbm; 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 Db major and its relative Bb minor (5 flats). 4 different chords appear 43 times in total; 3 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Bbm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from Db, the same F is V/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Bbm.
Chord movement
- F Bbm DbV/vi → vi BbmV → iharmonic-minor cadence ×9
- Ebm F Dbii → V/vi Bbmiv → Viv → V ×6
The move to watch is F → Bbm, heard 9 times. From the Bbm side it is V → i (harmonic-minor cadence: the major V resolves dramatically); from the Db side it reads V/vi → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- Db major pentatonic and Bb minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Db – Eb – F – Ab – Bb): start from Db for a brighter phrase, from Bb for a bluesier one.
- Over F#, land on F#, A#, C# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Bbm, land on Bb, Db, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Ebm, land on Eb, Gb, Bb — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- When F comes, swap the scale's Ab for A: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.

The song's harmonic story
The opening Bbm lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are F#, Bbm, Ebm, F; read them as IV–vi–ii–V/vi in Db or VI–i–iv–V in Bbm. F is the interesting twist: in Db it is a chromatic chord (V/vi), while in Bbm it becomes the dominant (V) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on F → Bbm (V/vi → vi in Db, V → i in Bbm): harmonic-minor cadence — the major V resolves dramatically. The final chord is F; the ear comes to rest in Db.
