Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: we can't honestly pick a side here — the song moves freely between Bb major and G minor because Bb is heard 10 times against 8 for Gm and the major V chord points straight at Gm. Try reading the chords both ways and see which feels more like home to you.
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). 8 different chords appear 59 times in total; 6 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Gm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from Bb, the same D7 is V7/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Gm. G7 acts as a secondary dominant, briefly pointing at another chord of the key.
The move to watch is Cm → F7, heard 8 times. From the Bb side it reads ii → V7 (ii → V: the classic preparation of the dominant); from the Gm side it is iv → VII7. 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 backbone is Cm, F7, Gm, D7 — ii–V7–vi–V7/vi from the Bb side, iv–VII7–i–V7 from the Gm side. D7 is the interesting twist: in Bb it is a chromatic chord (V7/vi), while in Gm it becomes the dominant (V7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on Cm → F7 (ii → V7 in Bb, iv → VII7 in Gm): ii → V — the classic preparation of the dominant. Ending on G7, the song seals Bb as home.
