Harmony analysis
Emir Can İğrek – Defoluyorum: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Fm and ends on Fm. Its chords belong to both Ab major and Fm, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
F minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = Db (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = Eb (natural-minor colour)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the F minor side because it both starts and finishes on Fm and Fm is heard 8 times while Ab never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Ab major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Analysis
The key pair is Ab major and its relative F minor (4 flats). 4 different chords appear 20 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
- Bbm Eb Abii → Vii → V Fmiv → VII ×4
- Cm Fm Abiii → vi Fmv → inatural-minor cadence ×4
The move to watch is Bbm → Eb, heard 4 times. From the Fm side it is iv → VII; from the Ab side it reads ii → V (ii → V: the classic preparation of the dominant). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- Ab major pentatonic and F minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Ab – Bb – C – Eb – F): start from Ab for a brighter phrase, from F for a bluesier one.
- Over Fm, land on F, Ab, C — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Bbm, land on Bb, Db, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Eb, land on Eb, G, Bb — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
The opening Fm lays a solid floor for everything that follows. Fm, Bbm, Eb, Cm carry the song: vi–ii–V–iii relative to Ab, i–iv–VII–v relative to Fm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Bbm → Eb (ii → V in Ab, iv → VII in Fm): ii → V — the classic preparation of the dominant. The final chord is Fm; the ear comes to rest in Fm.
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.
