B7
Softly, in the dusk, a woman is singing to me
C/G B7
She takes me back down the vista of my years, until I see
I see a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
C/G (start strumming)
Pressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings.
C/G Am13/G

Softly now in the evening dusk, a woman is singing to me;
Em7 D
She takes me back down the vista of my years, until I see
C/G* Am7
A boy, a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
Em7 D
Pressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings
C/G* Am7
Yearning to belong, yearning to belong
Em7 D
My heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belong
C/G* Am7
In spite of myself, and all of these nursery songs
Em7 D
My heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belong
C/G Am13/G Em7 D
Singing cucurucu, cucurucu cucurucu cucurucu
C/G G D9/F# F#m13(omit5)
Ohhhhhhhhh Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
C/G G D9/F# F#m13(omit5)
Till the melodies of childish days, are upon, upon me
C/G G
And they take me back, back down the river
D9/F# F#m13(omit5)
They keep leading me on, they lead me to the sea
C/G G
And all of my manhood is cast,
D9/F# F#m13(omit5)
Down in the flood of remembrance, and I weep like a child for the past.
C/G Am13 Em7 D
Singing cucurucu, cucurucu cucurucu cucurucu

Cause he can still say every single day, he's yearning to belong
C/G* Am7
Yearning to belong, yearning to belong

My heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belong
C/G* Am7
In spite of myself, and all of these nursery songs

My heart beats with a ceaseless, meets with a peaceless burning to belong
