Cm                   Ab
Dumanaltı odalar duvarlar soğuk
Cm                   Ab
Gözlerim yanar yalnızlıktan
Cm                  Ab
Kırılmış aynalar suretler kayıp
Cm                 Ab
Ellerim kanar aramaktan
Bb                  Ab
Öyle bir yokuş ki yol uzak
Bb                   Ab
Öyle bir derin ki kaybolsam
 
Cm             Ab
Sesimi duyan var mı
Cm             Ab
Sesimi duyan var mı
Cm           Ab
Orda kimse var mı
Cm          Ab
Neyse her neyse
 
Cm                       Ab
Sessizdi bakışlar nefesler donuk
Cm                   Ab
Sözlerim ağlar mutsuzluktan
Cm                        Ab    
Kaybolmuş tüm yollar saatler kayıp
Cm                     Ab
Kahpece sorular fısıltılar
Bb                    Ab
Öyle bir yağmur ki bulunsam
Bb                       Ab
Öyle bir çıkmaz ki yok olsam

Harmony analysis

Halil Sezai – Her Neyse (Serhat Karayiğit): key and chord analysis

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

Major view

Eb major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

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

Minor view

C minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

b6 = Ab (the minor's melancholy)
b7 = Bb (natural-minor colour)

Which side does the ear lean to?

Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the C minor side because it opens on Cm and Cm is heard 12 times while Eb never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Eb 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 Eb or to Cm; 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 Eb major and its relative C minor (3 flats). 3 different chords appear 32 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

Ab Cm EbIV → vi CmVI → iVI → i ×11
Ab Bb EbIV → VIV → V CmVI → VIIVI → VII ×4

The move to watch is Ab → Cm, heard 11 times. From the Cm side it is VI → i (VI → i: falls a half step into home); from the Eb side it reads IV → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

Eb major pentatonic and C minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Eb – F – G – Bb – C): start from Eb for a brighter phrase, from C for a bluesier one.
Over Ab, land on Ab, C, Eb — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Cm, land on C, Eb, G — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Bb, land on Bb, D, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story

Starting on Cm, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The chords that keep coming back are Ab, Cm, Bb; read them as IV–vi–V in Eb or VI–i–VII in Cm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Ab → Cm (IV → vi in Eb, VI → i in Cm): VI → i — falls a half step into home. It closes on Ab, letting the Eb 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.
