Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the F minor side because it both starts and finishes on Fm, Fm is heard 21 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). 7 different chords appear 87 times in total; 6 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 C7 is V7/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Fm.
The move to watch is Eb → Fm, heard 9 times. From the Fm side it is VII → i (Aeolian arrival: rises a whole tone into home); from the Ab side it reads V → vi (deceptive cadence: expected Ab, lands on Fm). 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. Fm, Cm7, Bbm7, Dbmaj7 carry the song: vi–iii7–ii7–IVmaj7 relative to Ab, i–v7–iv7–VImaj7 relative to Fm. C7 is the interesting twist: in Ab it is a chromatic chord (V7/vi), while in Fm it becomes the dominant (V7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on Eb → Fm (V → vi in Ab, VII → i in Fm): Aeolian arrival — rises a whole tone into home. Ending on Fm, the song seals Fm as home.
