Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the E minor side because it opens on Em and Em is heard 6 times against 2 for G. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from G major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to G or to Em; 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 G major and its relative E minor (1 sharp). 7 different chords appear 35 times in total; 7 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 Bm → Em, heard 3 times. From the Em side it is v → i (natural-minor cadence: gentle, modal arrival); from the G side it reads iii → 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.
The first chord is Em; the ear learns where home is within a second. Bm, Em, Am, C carry the song: iii–vi–ii–IV relative to G, v–i–iv–VI relative to Em. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Bm → Em (iii → vi in G, v → i in Em): natural-minor cadence — gentle, modal arrival. It closes on Bm, letting the G 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.
