Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the F minor side because it opens on Fm and Fm is heard 17 times against 2 for Ab. 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). 6 different chords appear 71 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.
The move to watch is Eb → Fm, heard 7 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.
The first chord is Fm; the ear learns where home is within a second. The backbone is Fm, Eb, Db, Cm — vi–V–IV–iii from the Ab side, i–VII–VI–v 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): Aeolian arrival — rises a whole tone into home. The final chord is Cm; the ear comes to rest in Ab.
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.
