Am Kapılır bana duygularım Ardından korkularım Dm Götürür beni bir kenara Kendimden çok uzağım G Gidemez gibiyim bi yere Unutur araftayım F Çıkarır beni baştan ya Yine hep en baştayım Am Seni yıldızlara bahsettim O zaman uyurum zannettim Dm İnan gözüm hep açık bu ara Yine sabretti̇m yüzünü gören cennetli̇k G Zehir eder her dünü bugünü kasvet Kendimi affettim diyemem F Sanki bi hasret, yüzünde bi nefret Doldu oldu felaket Am Gözüm görmez başkasını İnerim yine en derine Dm Tanık olmuş bile yıllar Unutulmaz sahnelere G Sayamam ki tek başıma Bi yığın düzine düzine F Ne olurdu söylesen Yüzüme yüzüme Am Beni sevmedin aslında Bütün herkes farkında Dm Yüzün ellerin avucun hem Hala hatırımda G İnanır miyim artık ben O yalancı dünyaya F Geri dönmem kendimden Zaten bu yürek ölüm orucunda

Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the A minor side because it opens on Am and Am is heard 4 times while C never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from C major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to C or to Am; 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 C major and its relative A minor (no sharps or flats). 4 different chords appear 16 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 Dm → G, heard 4 times. From the Am side it is iv → VII; from the C side it reads ii → V (ii → V: the classic preparation of the dominant). 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 Am, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The backbone is Am, Dm, G, F — vi–ii–V–IV from the C side, i–iv–VII–VI from the Am side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Dm → G (ii → V in C, iv → VII in Am): ii → V — the classic preparation of the dominant. Ending on F, the song seals C as home.
