   Gm
Döndü devran gördüm
   Ab
Kaçtım kendime güldüm
    Gm
Kalktım yerden birgün
Ab                       Gm
Hayallerin peşinden koşarken

Gm
Bir sevda gördüm
    Ab
Ama böylede geçmedi ömrüm
    Gm
Var git hayalleride gömdüm
   Ab                          Gm
Gönlüm geri gelmez yemin ettim ben

Gm          Ab
Öyle olmuyo lafla
               Gm
Haydi bir daha yokla
             Ab
Beni ararsın anca rüyanda

Gm
Sar başa sar
                                  Ab
Bu hikaye bi filmse başrolünde bendim
                   Fm
Yolum diken manzarası bana talip 
              Gm
Gönlümdeki sendin

Gm
Gündüzler gece oldu
    Ab                       Gm
Ben dert diye ismini seçer oldum
 
Çok çektin bilirim ha gayret
Ab
Zor günler yine geçer oğlum
Gm
Hani derdin neşem oldun
    Ab              Gm
Ben öyle yanından geçer oldum

Direnmedim ben hiç birine
Ab
Elimi bıraktın ecel oldun

Analysis

The key pair is Eb major and its relative C minor (3 flats). 3 different chords appear 30 times in total; 3 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

There's no textbook cadence here; the chords circle around each other in a loop, so the song feels more like a groove than a series of arrivals.

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 Ab, land on Ab, C, 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.

The song's harmonic story

Starting on Gm, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. Gm, Ab, Fm carry the song: iii–IV–ii relative to Eb, v–VI–iv relative to Cm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Ending on Ab, the song seals Eb 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.
