Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the C minor side because it opens on Cm and the major V chord points straight at Cm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Eb major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to Eb or to Cm; 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 Eb major and its relative C minor (3 flats). 4 different chords appear 32 times in total; 3 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Cm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from Eb, the same G7 is V7/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Cm.
The move to watch is Fm → G7, heard 8 times. From the Cm side it is iv → V7 (iv → V: the minor side's tension builder); from the Eb side it reads ii → V7/vi. 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 opening Cm lays a solid floor for everything that follows. Cm, Eb, Fm, G7 carry the song: vi–I–ii–V7/vi relative to Eb, i–III–iv–V7 relative to Cm. G7 is the interesting twist: in Eb it is a chromatic chord (V7/vi), while in Cm it becomes the dominant (V7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on Fm → G7 (ii → V7/vi in Eb, iv → V7 in Cm): iv → V — the minor side's tension builder. It closes on G7, letting the Eb side have the last word.
