Harmony analysis

Ece Mumay – Şahit (İlyas Yalçıntaş): key and chord analysis

The song opens on Cmaj7 and ends on Gmaj7. Its chords belong to both G major and Em, so every chord below is read both ways.

Major view

G major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

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

Minor view

E minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

  • b6 = C (the minor's melancholy)
  • b7 = D (natural-minor colour)

Which side does the ear lean to?

Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the G major side because it comes to rest on G and G is heard 2 times while Em never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — hearing the same chords from E minor is just as valid and teaches you something different.

Chord degrees: major and relative minor

Show the degrees above the chords — relative to G or to Em; 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 G major and its relative E minor (1 sharp). 4 different chords appear 18 times in total; 4 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

  • G major pentatonic and E minor pentatonic are the same five notes (G – A – B – D – E): start from G for a brighter phrase, from E for a bluesier one.
  • Over Bm7, land on B, D, F# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over Cmaj7, land on C, E, G — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over Am7, land on A, C, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song on the circle of fifths

  • Played in the song — chord of the key
  • Played — the minor's harmonic V or a secondary dominant
  • Played — borrowed or outside chord
  • Home region: IV–I–V and ii–vi–iii

Empty slices are chords the song doesn't use.

    The song's harmonic story

    The opening Cmaj7 lays a solid floor for everything that follows. Bm7, Cmaj7, Am7, Gmaj7 carry the song: iii7–IVmaj7–ii7–Imaj7 relative to G, v7–VImaj7–iv7–IIImaj7 relative to Em. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. The final chord is Gmaj7; the ear comes to rest in G.

    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.
