Harmony analysis

Çağan Şengül – Durak (Uğur Özdemir): key and chord analysis

The song opens on Ebm and ends on B. Its chords belong to both Gb major and Ebm, so every chord below is read both ways.

Major view

Gb major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

  • 7 = F (leading tone, pulls home)
  • 4 = Cb (the note that leans on the 3rd)

Minor view

Eb minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

  • b6 = Cb (the minor's melancholy)
  • b7 = Db (natural-minor colour)

Which side does the ear lean to?

Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the Eb minor side because it opens on Ebm and Ebm is heard 17 times while Gb never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Gb 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 Gb or to Ebm; 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 Gb major and its relative Eb minor (6 flats). 4 different chords appear 44 times in total; 4 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Everything stays inside one scale, which is why the song is easy to follow by ear.

Chord movement

  1. B Ebm GbIV → vi EbmVI → iVI → i ×11
  2. B Db GbIV → VIV → V EbmVI → VIIVI → VII ×6
  3. Abm Ebm Gbii → vi Ebmiv → iminor plagal ×2
  4. Db Ebm GbV → videceptive cadence EbmVII → iAeolian arrival ×2

The move to watch is B → Ebm, heard 11 times. From the Ebm side it is VI → i (VI → i: falls a half step into home); from the Gb side it reads IV → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

  • Gb major pentatonic and Eb minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Gb – Ab – Bb – Db – Eb): start from Gb for a brighter phrase, from Eb for a bluesier one.
  • Over B, land on B, D#, 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.
  • Over Db, land on Db, F, Ab — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song on the circle of fifths

  • Played in the song — chord of the key
  • Played — the minor's harmonic V or a secondary dominant
  • Played — borrowed or outside chord
  • Home region: IV–I–V and ii–vi–iii

Empty slices are chords the song doesn't use.

    The song's harmonic story

    The first chord is Ebm; the ear learns where home is within a second. B, Ebm, Db, Abm carry the song: IV–vi–V–ii relative to Gb, VI–i–VII–iv relative to Ebm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on B → Ebm (IV → vi in Gb, VI → i in Ebm): VI → i — falls a half step into home. Ending on B, the song seals Gb 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.
