Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the F minor side because it opens on Fm and Fm is heard 4 times while Ab never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Ab major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to Ab or to Fm; 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 Ab major and its relative F minor (4 flats). 5 different chords appear 34 times in total; 5 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 Db → Eb, heard 5 times. From the Fm side it is VI → VII (VI → VII: the rising step that heads for the tonic); from the Ab side it reads IV → V (IV → V: the lift that builds tension before home). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Empty slices are chords the song doesn't use.
Starting on Fm, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The backbone is Db, Cm, Eb, Fm — IV–iii–V–vi from the Ab side, VI–v–VII–i from the Fm side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Db → Eb (IV → V in Ab, VI → VII in Fm): VI → VII — the rising step that heads for the tonic. It closes on Eb, letting the Ab side have the last word.
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.
