Harmony analysis
Suzan Hacıgarip – Kul: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Bm and ends on Bm. Its chords belong to both D major and Bm, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
B minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = G (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = A (natural-minor colour)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the B minor side because it both starts and finishes on Bm and Bm is heard 11 times while D never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from D major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Show the degrees above the chords — relative to D or to Bm; 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 D major and its relative B minor (2 sharps). 3 different chords appear 25 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
- G Bm DIV → vi BmVI → iVI → i ×4
- A Bm DV → videceptive cadence BmVII → iAeolian arrival ×2
- G A DIV → VIV → V BmVI → VIIVI → VII ×2
The move to watch is G → Bm, heard 4 times. From the Bm side it is VI → i (VI → i: falls a half step into home); from the D side it reads IV → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- D major pentatonic and B minor pentatonic are the same five notes (D – E – F# – A – B): start from D for a brighter phrase, from B for a bluesier one.
- Over Bm, land on B, D, F# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over A, land on A, C#, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over G, land on G, B, D — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
The first chord is Bm; the ear learns where home is within a second. The backbone is Bm, A, G — vi–V–IV from the D side, i–VII–VI from the Bm side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on G → Bm (IV → vi in D, VI → i in Bm): VI → i — falls a half step into home. It closes on Bm, letting the Bm side have the last word.
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.
