Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the Bb minor side because it both starts and finishes on Bbm, Bbm is heard 31 times against 1 for Db and the major V chord points straight at Bbm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Db major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to Db or to Bbm; 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 Db major and its relative Bb minor (5 flats). 6 different chords appear 58 times in total; 3 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Bbm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from Db, the same F is V/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Bbm. C acts as a secondary dominant, briefly pointing at another chord of the key.
The move to watch is Ebm → Bbm, heard 14 times. From the Bbm side it is iv → i (minor plagal: deep and melancholic); from the Db side it reads ii → 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.
Starting on Bbm, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The backbone is Bbm, Ebm, F, Eb — vi–ii–V/vi–II from the Db side, i–iv–V–IV from the Bbm side. F is the interesting twist: in Db it is a chromatic chord (V/vi), while in Bbm it becomes the dominant (V) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on Ebm → Bbm (ii → vi in Db, iv → i in Bbm): minor plagal — deep and melancholic. The final chord is Bbm; the ear comes to rest in Bbm.
