Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the G minor side because it opens on Gm and Gm is heard 9 times while Bb never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Bb major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to Bb or to Gm; 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 Bb major and its relative G minor (2 flats). 3 different chords appear 44 times in total; 3 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 Dm → Gm, heard 8 times. From the Gm side it is v → i (natural-minor cadence: gentle, modal arrival); from the Bb 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 first chord is Gm; the ear learns where home is within a second. Dm, Eb, Gm carry the song: iii–IV–vi relative to Bb, v–VI–i relative to Gm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Dm → Gm (iii → vi in Bb, v → i in Gm): natural-minor cadence — gentle, modal arrival. It closes on Dm, letting the Bb side have the last word.
