Belle And Sebastian - I'm A Cuckoo Ukulele

I'm A Cuckoo
Belle & Sebastian

This is an alteration of the previous version on here, which was great but a few chords 
wrong. This should work better. It's easier to play if you tune down a semitone (see 
at the bottom). Hope you enjoy :-)

I was a kid again

Now it's my time of need
