¿Hacia qué lado se inclina el oído?
Nuestra lectura: a nosotros la canción nos suena más cercana a A menor, porque empieza en Am y Am suena 79 veces frente a 55 de C. Es una interpretación, no una regla: los mismos acordes son igual de válidos vistos desde C mayor, y alternar entre las dos lecturas es justo donde está el valor práctico.
Muestra los grados sobre los acordes, respecto a C o a Am; comparar las dos lecturas es una práctica en sí misma.
Todos los acordes de la tonalidad, ordenados del 1 al 7 por separado para cada tonalidad. Junto a los que suenan en la canción se indica cuántas veces aparecen; los acordes de fuera de la escala están junto a su propio grado.

El par de tonalidades es C mayor y su relativa A menor (sin sostenidos ni bemoles). Aparecen 6 acordes distintos, 279 veces en total; 6 de ellos están de forma natural dentro de la escala compartida. Todo se queda dentro de una sola escala; por eso la canción es fácil de seguir de oído.
El cambio al que debes prestar atención es F → Am, se oye 56 veces. Desde Am es VI → i (VI → i: baja medio tono hasta casa); desde C se lee como IV → vi. Saber dónde caen estas llegadas te ayuda a sentir el fraseo y a anticipar el siguiente acorde.
Los sectores vacíos son acordes que la canción no usa.
El acorde inicial Am pone una base sólida para todo lo que sigue. La columna vertebral es F, Am, C, Dm: IV–vi–I–ii desde C, VI–i–III–iv desde Am. Ningún acorde sale de la escala compartida, así que una sola forma pentatónica sirve para toda la canción. Presta oído a F → Am (IV → vi en C, VI → i en Am): VI → i — baja medio tono hasta casa. El acorde final es F; el oído descansa en C.
