Harmony analysis

Günseli Deniz – Uyman: key and chord analysis

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

Major view

Gb major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

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

Minor view

Eb minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

  • b6 = Cb (the minor's melancholy)
  • b7 = Db (natural-minor colour)
  • #7 = D (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 Eb minor side because it opens on Ebm, Ebm is heard 5 times while Gb never appears and the major V chord points straight at Ebm. 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.

Chord degrees: major and relative minor

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.

Analysis

The key pair is Gb major and its relative Eb minor (6 flats). 4 different chords appear 24 times in total; 3 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Ebm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from Gb, the same Bb is V/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Ebm.

Chord movement

  1. Abm Bb Gbii → V/vi Ebmiv → Viv → V ×5
  2. Bb Ebm GbV/vi → vi EbmV → iharmonic-minor cadence ×4

The move to watch is Abm → Bb, heard 5 times. From the Ebm side it is iv → V (iv → V: the minor side's tension builder); from the Gb side it reads ii → V/vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

  • Gb major pentatonic and Eb minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Gb – Ab – Bb – Db – Eb): start from Gb for a brighter phrase, from Eb for a bluesier one.
  • Over Bb, land on Bb, D, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over Ebm, land on Eb, Gb, Bb — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over Abm, land on Ab, Cb, Eb — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • When Bb comes, swap the scale's Db for D: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.

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

    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.
