Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: we can't honestly pick a side here — the song moves freely between A major and F# minor because A is heard 6 times while F#m never appears and the major V chord points straight at F#m. Try reading the chords both ways and see which feels more like home to you.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to A or to F#m; 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 A major and its relative F# minor (3 sharps). 7 different chords appear 62 times in total; 4 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of F#m brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from A, the same C# is V/vi, a secondary dominant heading for F#m. F#, G# act as secondary dominants, briefly pointing at another chord of the key.
The move to watch is D → E, heard 15 times. From the A side it reads IV → V (IV → V: the lift that builds tension before home); from the F#m side it is VI → VII (VI → VII: the rising step that heads for the tonic). 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 D; the ear learns where home is within a second. The chords that keep coming back are D, E, Bm, F#; read them as IV–V–ii–V/ii in A or VI–VII–iv–V/iv in F#m. F# is the interesting twist: in A it is a chromatic chord (V/ii), while in F#m it becomes the dominant (V/iv) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on D → E (IV → V in A, VI → VII in F#m): IV → V — the lift that builds tension before home. The final chord is F#; the ear comes to rest in A.
