Didn't like the other ukulele chords for this, they where just converted guitar chords.
Hope this is better.

I changed the E to a more uke friendly E7, but you can play the E if your a masochist or something.

Softly, in the evening dusk, a woman is singing to me;
Bm7
She takes me back down the vista of my years, until I see
Dbm7                                    Bm7
I see a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
A7
Pressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings.

Bm7  Dbm7  B   A
Cucurucu, cucurucu

D Bm Gbm A

Softly now in the evening dusk, a woman is singing to me;
Gbm                             E7
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
Gbm                                     E7
Pressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings
D                Bm
Yearning to belong, yearning to belong

My heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belong
D                       Bm
In spite of myself, and all of these nursery songs
Gbm                                     E7
My heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belong

Mmmmmmmm

Bm              A               E7     Db7
Till the melodies of childish days, are upon, upon me
                 Bm              A
And they take me back, back down the river
         E7                    Db7
They keep leading me on, they lead me to the sea
    Bm                     A
And all of my manhood is cast
E7                               Db7
Down in the flood of remembrance, and I weep like a child for the past.

Listen to me son, I'll tell you why your feather'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, meets with a peaceless burning to belong
