Gerçek sanıp inansaydım sığınsaydım aşkına

Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the Bb minor side because it opens on Bbm, Bbm is heard 8 times against 4 for Db and the major V chord points straight at Bbm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Db major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to Db or to Bbm; 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 Db major and its relative Bb minor (5 flats). 5 different chords appear 36 times in total; 4 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Bbm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from Db, the same F7 is V7/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Bbm.
The move to watch is F7 → Bbm, heard 7 times. From the Bbm side it is V7 → i (harmonic-minor cadence: the major V resolves dramatically); from the Db side it reads V7/vi → vi (secondary resolution: F7 resolves a fourth up to Bbm). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Empty slices are chords the song doesn't use.
The opening Bbm lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are F7, Bbm, Ebm, Ab; read them as V7/vi–vi–ii–V in Db or V7–i–iv–VII in Bbm. F7 is the interesting twist: in Db it is a chromatic chord (V7/vi), while in Bbm it becomes the dominant (V7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on F7 → Bbm (V7/vi → vi in Db, V7 → i in Bbm): harmonic-minor cadence — the major V resolves dramatically. The final chord is F7; the ear comes to rest in Db.
