[Verse 1]
B7
Softly, in the dusk, a woman is singing to me
Am
She takes me back down the vista of my years, until I see
B7
I see a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
Am
Pressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings.
Am7 B
Cucurucu,
Em G
cucurucu
[Chorus]
Am Em D
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
[Verse 2]
Am Am7
Softly now in the evening dusk, a woman is singing to me;
Em D
She takes me back down the vista of my years, until I see
A boy, a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
Pressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings
Yearning to belong, yearning to belong
My heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belong
In spite of myself, and all of these nursery songs
My heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belong
[Chorus]
Am Am7 Em D
Singing cucurucu, cucurucu cucurucu cucurucu
Am G D B7
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
[Bridge]
Am G D B7
Till the melodies of childish days, are upon, upon me
Am G
And they take me back, back down the river
D B7
They keep leading me on, they lead me to the sea
Am
And all of my manhood is cast,
G D B7
Down in the flood of remembrance, and I weep like a child for the past.
[Chorus]
Am Am7 Em D
Singing cucurucu, cucurucu cucurucu cucurucu
Am Am7 Em D
Hmmmmmm Hmmmmmm Hmmmmmmmm Hmmmmm
[Verse 3]
Am Am7
I see a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
Em D
Pressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings.
Listen to me son, I'll tell you why your father's strong
Cause he can still say every single day, he's yearning to belong
Yearning to belong, yearning to belong
My heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belong
In spite of myself, and all of these nursery songs
My heart beats with a ceaseless, meets with a peaceless burning to belong
[Chorus]
Am Am7 Em D
Singing cucurucu, cucurucu Singing cucurucu cucurucu
Am Am7 Em D D7
Singing cucurucu, cucurucu Singing cucurucu cucurucu
