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 and Ebm is heard 12 times while Gb never appears. 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.
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.

The key pair is Gb major and its relative Eb minor (6 flats). 4 different chords appear 44 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.
The move to watch is B → Db, heard 10 times. From the Ebm side it is VI → VII (VI → VII: the rising step that heads for the tonic); from the Gb side it reads IV → V (IV → V: the lift that builds tension before home). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Empty slices are chords the song doesn't use.
Starting on Ebm, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The chords that keep coming back are Db, Ebm, B, Abm; read them as V–vi–IV–ii in Gb or VII–i–VI–iv in Ebm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on B → Db (IV → V in Gb, VI → VII in Ebm): VI → VII — the rising step that heads for the tonic. It closes on Db, letting the Gb side have the last word.
