Harmony analysis
Emir Can İğrek – Nalan: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Gm and ends on Gm. Its chords belong to both Bb major and Gm, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
G minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = Eb (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = F (natural-minor colour)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the G minor side because it both starts and finishes on Gm and Gm is heard 12 times while Bb never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Bb major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Analysis
The key pair is Bb major and its relative G minor (2 flats). 5 different chords appear 34 times in total; 5 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
- Eb Gm BbIV → vi GmVI → iVI → i ×5
- Dm Gm Bbiii → vi Gmv → inatural-minor cadence ×2
The move to watch is Eb → Gm, heard 5 times. From the Gm side it is VI → i (VI → i: falls a half step into home); from the Bb side it reads IV → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- Bb major pentatonic and G minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Bb – C – D – F – G): start from Bb for a brighter phrase, from G for a bluesier one.
- Over Gm, land on G, Bb, D — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over F, land on F, A, C — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Eb, land on Eb, G, Bb — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
Starting on Gm, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The backbone is Gm, F, Eb, Cm — vi–V–IV–ii from the Bb side, i–VII–VI–iv from the Gm side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Eb → Gm (IV → vi in Bb, VI → i in Gm): VI → i — falls a half step into home. The final chord is Gm; the ear comes to rest in Gm.
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.
