Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the D minor side because it comes to rest on Dm, it opens on F and Dm is heard 14 times against 12 for F. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from F major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to F or to Dm; 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 F major and its relative D minor (1 flat). 5 different chords appear 42 times in total; 5 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 Am → Dm, heard 12 times. From the Dm side it is v → i (natural-minor cadence: gentle, modal arrival); from the F 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.
Starting on F, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. Dm, F, Am, Bb carry the song: vi–I–iii–IV relative to F, i–III–v–VI relative to Dm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Am → Dm (iii → vi in F, v → i in Dm): natural-minor cadence — gentle, modal arrival. Ending on Dm, the song seals Dm as home.
