Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: we can't honestly pick a side here — the song moves freely between B major and G# minor because it comes to rest on B, it opens on G#m and G#m is heard 8 times against 3 for B. Try reading the chords both ways and see which feels more like home to you.

Analysis
The key pair is B major and its relative G# minor (5 sharps). 6 different chords appear 32 times in total; 6 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Everything stays inside one scale, which is why the song is easy to follow by ear.
Chord movement
- D#m G#m Biii → vi G#mv → inatural-minor cadence ×5
- E B BIV → Iplagal cadence G#mVI → III ×2
- Emaj7 B BIVmaj7 → Iplagal cadence G#mVImaj7 → III ×1
The move to watch is D#m → G#m, heard 5 times. From the B side it reads iii → vi; from the G#m side it is v → i (natural-minor cadence: gentle, modal arrival). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- B major pentatonic and G# minor pentatonic are the same five notes (B – C# – D# – F# – G#): start from B for a brighter phrase, from G# for a bluesier one.
- Over D#m, land on D#, F#, A# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over G#m, land on G#, B, D# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Emaj7, land on E, G#, B — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
Starting on G#m, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The backbone is D#m, G#m, Emaj7, B — iii–vi–IVmaj7–I from the B side, v–i–VImaj7–III from the G#m side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on D#m → G#m (iii → vi in B, v → i in G#m): natural-minor cadence — gentle, modal arrival. Ending on B, the song seals B as home.
