Harmony analysis
Turan Şahin – Gözlerinden Geçilmez: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Bm and ends on F#m. Its chords belong to both D major and Bm, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
B minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = G (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = A (natural-minor colour)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the B minor side because it opens on Bm and Bm is heard 10 times while D never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from D major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

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 D major and its relative B minor (2 sharps). 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
- F#m Bm Diii → vi Bmv → inatural-minor cadence ×9
The move to watch is F#m → Bm, heard 9 times. From the Bm side it is v → i (natural-minor cadence: gentle, modal arrival); from the D side it reads iii → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- D major pentatonic and B minor pentatonic are the same five notes (D – E – F# – A – B): start from D for a brighter phrase, from B for a bluesier one.
- Over F#m, land on F#, A, C# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Bm, land on B, D, F# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Em, land on E, G, B — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
The opening Bm lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are F#m, Bm, Em; read them as iii–vi–ii in D or v–i–iv in Bm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on F#m → Bm (iii → vi in D, v → i in Bm): natural-minor cadence — gentle, modal arrival. Ending on F#m, the song seals D 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.
