Chords for [FULL PERFORMANCE] The Circle – Caleb Walker Tour 2026 | A Mother’s Day Song That Touches the Heart

You know, with Mother's Day coming up [Bb] this weekend, [F] I've been thinking a lot about my mom.
Back when she got [G] really sick, I was blessed to just be [Gm] there with her.
[Eb] Just doing the everyday things, you know?
_ She went home to be with the Lord [Bb] a while back, and I have peace knowing she's resting, no more [F] pain.
[C] But these days leading up to Mother's Day are always hard.
[Gm]
It just leaves this big void, realizing I can't [G] just sit down and sing these songs for her anymore.
So tonight, [F] I want to sing this one for her.
[Bb] It's called The Circle.
[Gm] The Circle of Life.
When I was just a little boy, she [F] carried me.
And at the end of [Cm] her life, I got the honor of carrying [F] her.
_ If you're blessed enough to still have [Bb] your mom with you, do me a favor.
[F] Send this song to her this weekend.
_ [Gm] Just tell her how much you love her.
To all the moms out there, you truly [Eb] are our angels. _
Thank you.

_ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _ [Db] _
You're the center of my [Ab] entire world
_ _ [Bbm]
You used to carry me [Gb] upon your hip
Now [Db] you are slipping from my [Ab] trembling grip _ _
I kneel to wash [Bbm] your feet
I comb your [Gb] silver hair
The circle is [Db] complete
I breathe a [Ab] silent prayer
I hold the spoon [Bbm] to feed your quivering [Gb]
lip
And catch the water that you try to [Db] sip
I carry you like you [Ab] carried me
_ _ [Bbm] _ I look at all the lines [Gb] upon your face
_ _ [Db] _ A map of every struggle [Ab] and disgrace
She _ [Bbm] sold you wedding ring to [Gb] buy me bread
_ _ [Db] And kept the roof above my [Ab] little head
_ _ [Bbm] I didn't see it when I [Gb] was a boy
_ _ [Db] I thought that life was just a [Ab] game and joy
_ _ [Bbm] And now I'm old and looking [Gb] back at you
_ _ _ [Db] I see the hell that you have walked [Ab] me through
_ _ I kneel to wash [Bbm] your feet
I comb your silver [Gb] hair
The circle is [Db] complete
I breathe a silent [Ab] prayer
I hold the spoon to [Bbm] feed your trembling [Gb] lip
And catch the water that you try to sip
[Db] I carry you like you carried [Ab] me
[Ab] I [Gb] _
_ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ sing [Gb] _
_ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Gb]
to you a forgotten [Bbm] old tune
The shadows dancing in the [Db] afternoon
The circle closes where it all [Ab] began
The baby boy is holding the old woman
I'm doing the best [Bbm] that I can
I _ [Gb] _
kiss the silver on your [Db] head
_ _ _ [Ab]
You weigh like feathers, it is [Bbm] true
But _ _ [Gb]
nothing weighs as much as [Db] owing you
_ [Ab] The debt I cannot [Bbm] pay
_ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _
