Analysis

The key pair is Eb major and its relative C minor (3 flats). 6 different chords appear 60 times in total; 6 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Everything stays inside one scale, which is why the song is easy to follow by ear.

Chord movement

Fm Bb Ebii → Vii → V Cmiv → VII ×10

The move to watch is Fm → Bb, heard 10 times. From the Eb side it reads ii → V (ii → V: the classic preparation of the dominant); from the Cm side it is iv → VII. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

Eb major pentatonic and C minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Eb – F – G – Bb – C): start from Eb for a brighter phrase, from C for a bluesier one.
Over Ab, land on Ab, C, Eb — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Fm, land on F, Ab, C — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Gm, land on G, Bb, D — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story

The opening Gm lays a solid floor for everything that follows. Ab, Fm, Gm, Bb carry the song: IV–ii–iii–V relative to Eb, VI–iv–v–VII relative to Cm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Fm → Bb (ii → V in Eb, iv → VII in Cm): ii → V — the classic preparation of the dominant. It closes on Gm, letting the Eb side have the last word.
