Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the Bb major side because it opens on Bb and Bb is heard 10 times against 2 for Gm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — hearing the same chords from G minor is just as valid and teaches you something different.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to Bb or to Gm; 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 Bb major and its relative G minor (2 flats). 5 different chords appear 39 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 Dm → Gm, heard 2 times. From the Bb side it reads iii → vi; from the Gm side it is v → i (natural-minor cadence: gentle, modal arrival). 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 Bb; the ear learns where home is within a second. The chords that keep coming back are Cm, Dm, Bb, Gm; read them as ii–iii–I–vi in Bb or iv–v–III–i in Gm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Dm → Gm (iii → vi in Bb, v → i in Gm): natural-minor cadence — gentle, modal arrival. Ending on Dm, the song seals Bb as home.
