Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the Bb major side because it both starts and finishes on Bb and Bb is heard 13 times against 3 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.

Analysis
The key pair is Bb major and its relative G minor (2 flats). 6 different chords appear 37 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
- Eb Bb BbIV → Iplagal cadence GmVI → III ×8
- Cm F Bbii → Vii → V Gmiv → VII ×3
The move to watch is Eb → Bb, heard 8 times. From the Bb side it reads IV → I (plagal cadence: the soft 'amen' ending); from the Gm side it is VI → III. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- Bb major pentatonic and G minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Bb – C – D – F – G): start from Bb for a brighter phrase, from G for a bluesier one.
- Over Bb, land on Bb, D, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Eb, land on Eb, G, Bb — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Dm, land on D, F, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
Starting on Bb, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The backbone is Bb, Eb, Dm, Gm — I–IV–iii–vi from the Bb side, III–VI–v–i from the Gm side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Eb → Bb (IV → I in Bb, VI → III in Gm): plagal cadence — the soft 'amen' ending. It closes on Bb, letting the Bb side have the last word.
