Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the Ab major side because Ab is heard 1 times while Fm never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — hearing the same chords from F minor is just as valid and teaches you something different.
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). 7 different chords appear 37 times in total; 7 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 Dbmaj7 → Eb, heard 3 times. From the Ab side it reads IVmaj7 → V (IV → V: the lift that builds tension before home); from the Fm side it is VImaj7 → VII (VI → VII: the rising step that heads for the tonic). 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 Eb, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The chords that keep coming back are Dbmaj7, Cm, Bbm7, Eb; read them as IVmaj7–iii–ii7–V in Ab or VImaj7–v–iv7–VII in Fm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Dbmaj7 → Eb (IVmaj7 → V in Ab, VImaj7 → VII in Fm): IV → V — the lift that builds tension before home. The final chord is Cm; the ear comes to rest in Ab.
