Harmony analysis

Emre Altuğ – Sev Diyemem: key and chord analysis

The song opens on F and ends on Em. Its chords belong to both C major and Am, so every chord below is read both ways.

Major view

C major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

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

Minor view

A minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

b6 = F (the minor's melancholy)
b7 = G (natural-minor colour)

Which side does the ear lean to?

Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the C major side because C is heard 22 times against 6 for Am. That is an interpretation, not a rule — hearing the same chords from A minor is just as valid and teaches you something different.

Chord degrees: major and relative minor

Show the degrees above the chords — relative to C or to Am; 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 C major and its relative A minor (no sharps or flats). 8 different chords appear 119 times in total; 7 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. C#5 step outside the scale as colour chords.

Chord movement

F G CIV → VIV → V AmVI → VIIVI → VII ×10
Dm Am Cii → vi Amiv → iminor plagal ×6
G C CV → Iauthentic cadence AmVII → III ×4
Dm G Cii → Vii → V Amiv → VII ×4

The move to watch is F → G, heard 10 times. From the C side it reads IV → V (IV → V: the lift that builds tension before home); from the Am side it is VI → VII (VI → VII: the rising step that heads for the tonic). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

C major pentatonic and A minor pentatonic are the same five notes (C – D – E – G – A): start from C for a brighter phrase, from A for a bluesier one.
Over Em, land on E, G, B — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Dm, 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.

The song's harmonic story

The opening F lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The backbone is Em, Dm, C, G — iii–ii–I–V from the C side, v–iv–III–VII from the Am side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on F → G (IV → V in C, VI → VII in Am): IV → V — the lift that builds tension before home. Ending on Em, the song seals C 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.
