Cucurucu Nick Mulvey
Softly, in the d[B7]usk, a woman is singing to me
[C/G]She takes me back down the vista of my years, until I se[B7]e
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.

A boy, a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
Pressin[Em7]g the poised feet of his mother who[D] smiles at him as she sings

Yearning to belong, yearning to belong
My heart [Em7]beats with a ceaseless longing of [D]a yearning to belong

Till the melodies of childish days, are upon, upon me
[C/G]And they take me back, back[G] down the river
D9/F# F#m13(omit5)
They keep leading me on, they lead me to the sea
[C/G]And all of my manhood is [G]cast,
D9/F# F#m13(omit5)
Down in the flood of remembrance, and I weep like a child for the past.
