Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the D minor side because it opens on Dm, Dm is heard 4 times while F never appears and the major V chord points straight at Dm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from F major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to F or to Dm; 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 F major and its relative D minor (1 flat). 6 different chords appear 23 times in total; 5 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Dm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from F, the same A7 is V7/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Dm.
The move to watch is Am → Dm, heard 2 times. From the Dm side it is v → i (natural-minor cadence: gentle, modal arrival); from the F 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 Dm; the ear learns where home is within a second. The backbone is A7, Dm, Am, Bb — V7/vi–vi–iii–IV from the F side, V7–i–v–VI from the Dm side. A7 is the interesting twist: in F it is a chromatic chord (V7/vi), while in Dm it becomes the dominant (V7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on Am → Dm (iii → vi in F, v → i in Dm): natural-minor cadence — gentle, modal arrival. It closes on A7, letting the F side have the last word.
