Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the A minor side because Am is heard 16 times against 4 for C and the major V chord points straight at Am. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from C major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to C or to Am; 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 C major and its relative A minor (no sharps or flats). 7 different chords appear 81 times in total; 5 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Am brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from C, the same E7 is V7/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Am. A7 acts as a secondary dominant, briefly pointing at another chord of the key.
The move to watch is A7 → Dm, heard 15 times. From the Am side it is V7/iv → iv; from the C side it reads V7/ii → ii (secondary resolution: A7 resolves a fourth up to Dm). 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 Dm, Am, A7, G — ii–vi–V7/ii–V from the C side, iv–i–V7/iv–VII from the Am side. A7 is the interesting twist: in C it is a chromatic chord (V7/ii), while in Am it becomes the dominant (V7/iv) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on A7 → Dm (V7/ii → ii in C, V7/iv → iv in Am): secondary resolution — A7 resolves a fourth up to Dm. Ending on A7, the song seals C as home.
