The key pair is Bb major and its relative G minor (2 flats). 4 different chords appear 33 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 → Gm, heard 5 times. From the Bb side it reads iii → vi; from the Gm 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.
Empty slices are chords the song doesn't use.
The first chord is Dm; the ear learns where home is within a second. The backbone is Dm, Cm, Gm, Bb — iii–ii–vi–I from the Bb side, v–iv–i–III from the Gm side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Dm → Gm (iii → vi in Bb, v → i in Gm): natural-minor cadence — gentle, modal arrival. The final chord is Dm; the ear comes to rest in Bb.
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.
