Harmony analysis

MFÖ – Mazeretim Var Asabiyim Ben: key and chord analysis

The song opens on Am and ends on Am. Its chords belong to both C major and Am, so every chord below is read both ways.

Major view

C major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

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

Minor view

A minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

b6 = F (the minor's melancholy)
b7 = G (natural-minor colour)
#7 = G# (harmonic-minor leading tone from the V chord)

Which side does the ear lean to?

Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the A minor side because it both starts and finishes on Am, Am is heard 17 times against 2 for C and the major V chord points straight at Am. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from C major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Chord degrees: major and relative minor

Show the degrees above the chords — relative to C or to Am; 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 C major and its relative A minor (no sharps or flats). 9 different chords appear 56 times in total; 7 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Am brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from C, the same E / E7 is V/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Am.

Chord movement

Dm E Cii → V/vi Amiv → Viv → V ×6
E Am CV/vi → vi AmV → iharmonic-minor cadence ×4
G Am CV → videceptive cadence AmVII → iAeolian arrival ×3
Dm Am Cii → vi Amiv → iminor plagal ×3
G C CV → Iauthentic cadence AmVII → III ×2
E7 Am CV7/vi → visecondary resolution AmV7 → iharmonic-minor cadence ×2

The move to watch is Dm → E, heard 6 times. From the Am side it is iv → V (iv → V: the minor side's tension builder); from the C side it reads ii → V/vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

C major pentatonic and A minor pentatonic are the same five notes (C – D – E – G – A): start from C for a brighter phrase, from A for a bluesier one.
Over Am, land on A, C, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over E, land on E, G#, B — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Dm, land on D, F, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
When E7 comes, swap the scale's G for G#: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.

The song's harmonic story

The first chord is Am; the ear learns where home is within a second. The backbone is Am, E, Dm, G — vi–V/vi–ii–V from the C side, i–V–iv–VII from the Am side. E is the interesting twist: in C it is a chromatic chord (V/vi), while in Am it becomes the dominant (V) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on Dm → E (ii → V/vi in C, iv → V in Am): iv → V — the minor side's tension builder. The final chord is Am; the ear comes to rest in Am.
