Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the B minor side because it comes to rest on Bm and Bm is heard 9 times while D never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from D major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to D or to Bm; 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 D major and its relative B minor (2 sharps). 7 different chords appear 59 times in total; 6 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. B acts as a secondary dominant, briefly pointing at another chord of the key.
The move to watch is Em → Bm, heard 4 times. From the Bm side it is iv → i (minor plagal: deep and melancholic); from the D side it reads ii → vi. 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 Gmaj7, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. F#m, Gmaj7, A, Bm carry the song: iii–IVmaj7–V–vi relative to D, v–VImaj7–VII–i relative to Bm. B adds a moment of surprise: secondary dominant V/ii — leads to Em. Keep an ear on Em → Bm (ii → vi in D, iv → i in Bm): minor plagal — deep and melancholic. It closes on Bm, letting the Bm 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.
