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 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). 8 different chords appear 68 times in total; 6 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 A is V/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Dm. Em step outside the scale as colour chords.
The move to watch is Gm → C, heard 10 times. From the Dm side it is iv → VII; from the F side it reads ii → V (ii → V: the classic preparation of the dominant). 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 Dm, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The backbone is Bb, Gm, C, A — IV–ii–V–V/vi from the F side, VI–iv–VII–V from the Dm side. A is the interesting twist: in F it is a chromatic chord (V/vi), while in Dm it becomes the dominant (V) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on Gm → C (ii → V in F, iv → VII in Dm): ii → V — the classic preparation of the dominant. It closes on A, letting the F side have the last word.
