Analysis
The key pair is Gb major and its relative Eb minor (6 flats). 2 different chords appear 27 times in total; 2 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
- 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 Bbm, land on Bb, Db, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over B, land on B, D#, F# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
Starting on Bbm, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The backbone is Bbm, B — iii–IV from the Gb side, v–VI from the Ebm side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. The final chord is Bbm; the ear comes to rest in Gb.
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.
