Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the F minor side because Fm is heard 10 times while Ab never appears and the major V chord points straight at Fm. 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 77 times in total; 4 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Fm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from Ab, the same C is V/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Fm.
The move to watch is Dbmaj7 → Eb, heard 21 times. From the Fm side it is VImaj7 → VII (VI → VII: the rising step that heads for the tonic); from the Ab side it reads IVmaj7 → 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.
The opening Dbmaj7 lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are Dbmaj7, Eb, C, Fm; read them as IVmaj7–V–V/vi–vi in Ab or VImaj7–VII–V–i in Fm. C is the interesting twist: in Ab it is a chromatic chord (V/vi), while in Fm it becomes the dominant (V) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on Dbmaj7 → Eb (IVmaj7 → V in Ab, VImaj7 → VII in Fm): VI → VII — the rising step that heads for the tonic. The final chord is Dbmaj7; the ear comes to rest in Ab.
