Bi' tarafım istiyo' boynuna ip
Bi' tarafım istiyo' kolye, garip

Nefretim emreder: "O tarafa git"
Yastığıma akıttım bilerek drip

Akıntıya ters yüzelim mi, bebek?
Gece istemiyo' fren; ter, yaş yerine

İstediğin ne? Aşk kaç kelime?
Geç yerime; yaklaş, duy bi' kere

Ol nefretine artık sadık
Olmasaydın aklımı oynatırdım

Birbirimizi bizden kurtardık
Gökyüzüyle aynı katmandaydık

Biraz olsun sevgi katmalıydın
Aslında hep aynı kavgadaydık

(aynı akor döngüsü devam eder)
Keşkemi bıraktım geçmişimde
Besbelli kaldık eskisinde
Çıkıyorum artık etkisinden
Hızlandım, sen de gel peşimden
Ateşim bana yakın hâlâ
Çıkarıyorum onu gerçek dışına, ya
Yardım almalıydım, çıktı yüklerim omzumdan başıma, ah
Her şeyin en başına, hah
Döndüm beş yaşıma, hah
Senle inatlaşamam
Yanımda kötü insan taşımam, ya
Gel, gerçeği bekleyemem
Uçmayı denemişken emekleyemem
Kafamdakiyle savaş içindeyim
Bu yüzden kendime "Öl" diyemem
Göğsümden akan yaş bana zindan etti beni
Ellerim ellerine değmemeli
Issız kaldım, bıraktın düşüncelerimle beni
Geceyi ön koltukta seyredelim istedim
Ellerim ellerine değmemeli

Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the Eb minor side because it opens on Ebm and Ebm is heard 10 times while Gb never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Gb major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to Gb or to Ebm; 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.

The key pair is Gb major and its relative Eb minor (6 flats). 2 different chords appear 20 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.
The move to watch is B → Ebm, heard 9 times. From the Ebm side it is VI → i (VI → i: falls a half step into home); from the Gb side it reads IV → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Empty slices are chords the song doesn't use.
The first chord is Ebm; the ear learns where home is within a second. The backbone is Ebm, B — vi–IV from the Gb side, i–VI from the Ebm side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on B → Ebm (IV → vi in Gb, VI → i in Ebm): VI → i — falls a half step into home. Ending on B, the song seals Gb 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.
