I have no idea if this is actually correct, but it's accurate and easy enough to play.

Go crazy with some funky variations.


[Verse]

C#m7 (slow strum)
Softly, in the dusk, a woman is singing to me;
Bm7(slow strum)
She takes me back down the vista of my years, until I see
C#m7 (slow strum) Bm7 (softly)
I see a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
A7 (softly)
Pressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings.
Bm7, C#m7, B, A (strumstrum)
Cucurucu, cucurucu

D, Bm, F#m, A
Mmmmmmm


[Verse]

Bm
Softly now in the evening dusk, a woman is singing to me;
F#m E
She takes me back down the vista of my years, until I see
D Bm
A boy, a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
F#m E
Pressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings
D Bm
Yearning to belong, yearning to belong
F#m E
My heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belong
D Bm
In spite of myself, and all of these nursery songs
F#m E
My heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belong


[Chorus]

D Bm
Cucurucu, cucurucu
F#m E
Singing cucurucu, cucurucu

Bm, A, E, G#m7
Mmmmmmm


[Verse]

Bm A E C#7
Till the melodies of childish days, are upon, upon me
Bm A
And they take me back, back down the river
E C#7
They keep leading me on, they lead me to the sea
Bm A
And all of my manhood is cast
E C#7
Down in the flood of remembrance, and I weep like a child for the past.


[Chorus]

D Bm
Singing cucurucu, cucurucu
F#m E
Singing cucurucu, cucurucu

D, Bm, F#m, A
Mmmmmmm


[Verse]

D Bm
I see a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
F#m A
Pressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings.
D Bm
Listen to me son, I'll tell you why your father's strong
F#m E
Cause he can still say every single day, he's yearning to belong
D Bm
Yearning to belong, yearning to belong
F#m E
My heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belong
D Bm
In spite of myself, and all of these nursery songs
F#m E
My heart beats with a ceaseless, meets with a peaceless burning to belong


[Chorus]

D Bm
Singing cucurucu, cucurucu
F#m E
Singing cucurucu
D Bm
Singing cucurucu, cucurucu
F#m E E E E E
Cucurucu
