Chords for Rare Eric Clapton "Circus Left Town" Conor's passing

_ What happened to me last year, on the loss of my son,
I think my audience would be very surprised if I didn't make some sort of reference to it.
And I wouldn't want to insult them by not including them in my _ grief, in a way.
And so I do intend to make these things known,
and I will play them in [D] concert and put them on [Em] record.
It is, for me, a healing process,
[C#m] and I think it's important that [B] you share that with people that [C] love your music.

[C#m] The Circus Left Town, which is [C#] directly about my son,
[F#m] because last night I spent [B] at the circus.
_ _ _ [D#m] _
It's_
I mean, there's not much [A] I can say about these [B] things,
except that they helped [F#] me get through a [Am] very, very hard patch in my life.
[D#] _ _ [B] _
_ [A] _ Little man with his eyes on the [F#m] pile
_ And his smile so [B] bright
[A] Get his hands on the toys you get
_ [D#] Fill his heart [C#m] with delight
[B]
In [A] _ a ring stands [Bm] a circus clown
[Am] _ Holding _ [C#m] _ _ [B] _
_ [A] _ what you see, [F#] what you will hear
[D#m] Will ask you for the rest [C#m] of your life
[B] _
[A] And it's sad, _ [B] so sad
_ [C] There ain't no easy [C#m] way [B] around
[A] And it's sad, _ [G#] so sad
_ [Bm] _ All you friends [A] gather round
[D] Cause the circus [A] is

_ [Am] And love [C#m] so fine
[B] _
_ [A] _ Stick with me and [Bm] I'll ride with [A] you
In [Am] _ the middle [C#m] of the night
[B] _
_ [A] _ Hold my hand and I'll [Bm] walk with you
[A] _ _ [Am] Through the darkness
[C#m] When [B] _
_ [A] _ I smile I'll be [Bm] thinking of you
[G#] And what if our love is wrong
[C#m] _ _ [B] _
[A] And it's sad, _ [B] so sad _
[C] There ain't no easy [C#m] way around
