Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the C# minor side because it opens on C#m and C#m is heard 7 times against 2 for E. 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.
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.

The key pair is E major and its relative C# minor (4 sharps). 6 different chords appear 30 times in total; 3 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. D, Dmaj7 are borrowed from the parallel minor, adding a darker shade to the major side.
The move to watch is Amaj7 → E, heard 2 times. From the C#m side it is VImaj7 → III; from the E side it reads IVmaj7 → I (plagal cadence: the soft 'amen' ending). 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 first chord is C#m7; the ear learns where home is within a second. The chords that keep coming back are Amaj7, C#m7, Bm7, D; read them as IVmaj7–vi7–v7–bVII in E or VImaj7–i7–vii7–bII in C#m. D briefly darkens the picture: bvii — borrowed (mixolydian / parallel minor). Keep an ear on Amaj7 → E (IVmaj7 → I in E, VImaj7 → III in C#m): plagal cadence — the soft 'amen' ending. The final chord is Amaj7; the ear comes to rest in E.
This analysis is generated from the song's chords by akorculuk's harmony engine using consistent rules. When you change key, the degrees stay the same; only the chord names change.
