Minor view
F minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = Db (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = Eb (natural-minor colour)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the Ab major side because it opens on Ab and Ab is heard 5 times against 3 for Fm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — hearing the same chords from F minor is just as valid and teaches you something different.

Analysis
The key pair is Ab major and its relative F minor (4 flats). 6 different chords appear 40 times in total; 6 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Everything stays inside one scale, which is why the song is easy to follow by ear.
Chord movement
- Eb Fm AbV → videceptive cadence FmVII → iAeolian arrival ×3
- Db Eb AbIV → VIV → V FmVI → VIIVI → VII ×2
- Db Ab AbIV → Iplagal cadence FmVI → III ×1
The move to watch is Eb → Fm, heard 3 times. From the Ab side it reads V → vi (deceptive cadence: expected Ab, lands on Fm); from the Fm side it is VII → i (Aeolian arrival: rises a whole tone into home). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- Ab major pentatonic and F minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Ab – Bb – C – Eb – F): start from Ab for a brighter phrase, from F for a bluesier one.
- Over Cm, land on C, Eb, G — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Db, land on Db, F, Ab — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Ab, land on Ab, C, Eb — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
The opening Ab lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The backbone is Cm, Db, Ab, Eb — iii–IV–I–V from the Ab side, v–VI–III–VII from the Fm side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Eb → Fm (V → vi in Ab, VII → i in Fm): deceptive cadence — expected Ab, lands on Fm. Ending on Cm, the song seals Ab as home.
