Harmony analysis
Haluk Levent – Vicdan: key and chord analysis
The song opens on C#m and ends on C#m. Its chords belong to both E major and C#m, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
C# minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = A (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = B (natural-minor colour)
- #7 = B# (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 C# minor side because it both starts and finishes on C#m, C#m is heard 11 times while E never appears and the major V chord points straight at C#m. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from E 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 E or to C#m; 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.
| Degree | Chord | Role | Notes | In song |

Analysis
The key pair is E major and its relative C# minor (4 sharps). 5 different chords appear 46 times in total; 4 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of C#m brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from E, the same G# is V/vi, a secondary dominant heading for C#m.
Chord movement
- A C#m EIV → vi C#mVI → iVI → i ×6
- F#m B Eii → Vii → V C#miv → VII ×4
- G# C#m EV/vi → vi C#mV → iharmonic-minor cadence ×3
- A B EIV → VIV → V C#mVI → VIIVI → VII ×2
- F#m G# Eii → V/vi C#miv → Viv → V ×1
The move to watch is A → C#m, heard 6 times. From the C#m side it is VI → i (VI → i: falls a half step into home); from the E side it reads IV → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- E major pentatonic and C# minor pentatonic are the same five notes (E – F# – G# – B – C#): start from E for a brighter phrase, from C# for a bluesier one.
- Over C#m, land on C#, E, G# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over A, land on A, C#, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over F#m, land on F#, A, C# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- When G# comes, swap the scale's B for B#: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.

The song's harmonic story
The opening C#m lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are C#m, A, F#m, B; read them as vi–IV–ii–V in E or i–VI–iv–VII in C#m. G# is the interesting twist: in E it is a chromatic chord (V/vi), while in C#m it becomes the dominant (V) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on A → C#m (IV → vi in E, VI → i in C#m): VI → i — falls a half step into home. It closes on C#m, letting the C#m side have the last word.
