Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the G major side because it opens on G, G is heard 18 times against 8 for Em and the major V chord points straight at Em. That is an interpretation, not a rule — hearing the same chords from E minor is just as valid and teaches you something different.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to G or to Em; 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 G major and its relative E minor (1 sharp). 9 different chords appear 75 times in total; 6 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Em brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from G, the same B / Ebdim is V/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Em. A acts as a secondary dominant, briefly pointing at another chord of the key.
The move to watch is Cadd9 → G, heard 13 times. From the G side it reads IV → I (plagal cadence: the soft 'amen' ending); from the Em side it is VI → III. 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 song is already written in its easiest key for guitar.
The opening G lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The backbone is G, Cadd9, C, D — I–IV–IV–V from the G side, III–VI–VI–VII from the Em side. B is the interesting twist: in G it is a chromatic chord (V/vi), while in Em it becomes the dominant (V) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on Cadd9 → G (IV → I in G, VI → III in Em): plagal cadence — the soft 'amen' ending. The final chord is C; the ear comes to rest in G.
