Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the B minor side because it both starts and finishes on Bm and Bm is heard 18 times against 12 for D. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from D major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to D or to Bm; 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 D major and its relative B minor (2 sharps). 5 different chords appear 58 times in total; 4 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Bb is borrowed from the parallel minor, adding a darker shade to the major side.
The move to watch is G → A, heard 12 times. From the Bm side it is VI → VII (VI → VII: the rising step that heads for the tonic); from the D side it reads IV → V (IV → V: the lift that builds tension before home). 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 Bm lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are Bm, D, G, A; read them as vi–I–IV–V in D or i–III–VI–VII in Bm. Bb briefly darkens the picture: borrowed from the parallel minor. Keep an ear on G → A (IV → V in D, VI → VII in Bm): VI → VII — the rising step that heads for the tonic. Ending on Bm, the song seals Bm as home.
