The key pair is Ab major and its relative F minor (4 flats). 7 different chords appear 48 times in total; 7 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 Dbmaj7 → Eb, heard 4 times. From the Ab side it reads IVmaj7 → V (IV → V: the lift that builds tension before home); from the Fm side it is VImaj7 → VII (VI → VII: the rising step that heads for the tonic). 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 Cm lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The backbone is Cm, Dbmaj7, Eb, Bbm — iii–IVmaj7–V–ii from the Ab side, v–VImaj7–VII–iv from the Fm side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Dbmaj7 → Eb (IVmaj7 → V in Ab, VImaj7 → VII in Fm): IV → V — the lift that builds tension before home. Ending on Cm, the song seals Ab as home.
