Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the C minor side because it opens on Cm and Cm is heard 5 times against 4 for Eb. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Eb major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to Eb or to Cm; 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 Eb major and its relative C minor (3 flats). 6 different chords appear 35 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 Gm → Cm, heard 3 times. From the Cm side it is v → i (natural-minor cadence: gentle, modal arrival); from the Eb side it reads iii → vi. 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 opening Cm lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are Gm, Ab, Cm, Fm; read them as iii–IV–vi–ii in Eb or v–VI–i–iv in Cm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Gm → Cm (iii → vi in Eb, v → i in Cm): natural-minor cadence — gentle, modal arrival. Ending on Gm, the song seals Eb as home.
