Chords for Nick Mulvey - Cucurucu Lyrics

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G#] Softly in the evening dusk a woman is singing to me
[Bm] She takes me back down the vista of my years until I [C#m] see
I see a child [B] underneath the piano in the boom of the [C#] tingling strings
[F#] _
Pressing the poised feet of his mother [F#m] who smiles [Bm] at him as she sings
Cuckoo to coo, _ [F#] _ _
_ [F#] cuckoo to _ coo
[A] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [Bm] Softly now in the evening dusk a woman is singing to me
She takes [F#m] me back down the vista of [E] my years until I see
I see a boy, a child underneath the piano in the boom of the tingling strings
[F#m] Pressing the poised feet of his mother [E] who smiles at him as she sings
[D] Yearning to belong, [Bm] yearning to belong
[F#m] My heart beats with a ceaseless longing [E] lover, yearning to belong
[D] In spite of myself and [Bm] all of these nursery songs
[F#m] My heart beats with a ceaseless longing [E] lover, yearning to belong
[D] Cuckoo to coo, _ [Bm] cuckoo to coo
Sing [F#m] cuckoo to coo, _ [F#] cuckoo to _ _ [Bm] coo
_ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#] To the [Bm] melodies _ of [A] childish _ days
[E] Are a poem _ [C#] for me
And they take [Bm] me back, back [A] down the river
[E] They keep leading me [C#] on
They lead me till I see [Bm] the old of my [A] manhood is gone
_ _ [E] Down in the flood of remembrance [C#] and I weep like a child for the past
Sing [D] cuckoo to coo, _ [Bm] cuckoo to coo
Sing [F#m] cuckoo to coo, [E] cuckoo to coo
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ [D] I see a child underneath the piano in the boom of the tingling strings
[F#m] Pressing the poised feet of his mother [E] who smiles at him as she sings
[D] Listen to me [Bm] son, I'll tell you why your father's strong
[F#m] Cause he can still say every single [E] day _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ [E] _
In spite [D] of myself and [Bm] all of these nursery songs
[F#m] My heart beats with a ceaseless _ [E] longing lover, yearning to belong
[D] Cuckoo to coo, _ [Bm] cuckoo to coo
Sing [F#m] cuckoo to coo, _ _ [E] cuckoo to coo
