Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the A minor side because it both starts and finishes on Am. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from C major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to C or to Am; 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 C major and its relative A minor (no sharps or flats). 4 different chords appear 80 times in total; 4 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Everything stays inside one scale, which is why the song is easy to follow by ear.
There's no textbook cadence here; the chords circle around each other in a loop, so the song feels more like a groove than a series of arrivals.
Empty slices are chords the song doesn't use.
The opening Am lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The backbone is Am, Dm, C, F — vi–ii–I–IV from the C side, i–iv–III–VI from the Am side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Ending on Am, the song seals Am as home.
This analysis is generated from the song's chords by akorculuk's harmony engine using consistent rules. When you change key, the degrees stay the same; only the chord names change.
