Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the E minor side because it both starts and finishes on Em and Em is heard 8 times against 1 for G. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from G major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to G or to Em; 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 G major and its relative E minor (1 sharp). 6 different chords appear 35 times in total; 5 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. F#m step outside the scale as colour chords.
The move to watch is D → Em, heard 2 times. From the Em side it is VII → i (Aeolian arrival: rises a whole tone into home); from the G side it reads V → vi (deceptive cadence: expected G, lands on Em). 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 song is already written in its easiest key for guitar.
The first chord is Em; the ear learns where home is within a second. C, Am, Em, D carry the song: IV–ii–vi–V relative to G, VI–iv–i–VII relative to Em. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on D → Em (V → vi in G, VII → i in Em): Aeolian arrival — rises a whole tone into home. The final chord is Em; the ear comes to rest in Em.
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.
