B minorBm F# minorF#m E MajorE


Verse 1:

B minorBm
She said, "Are you okay?"
F# minorF#m
And I'm staring into space
E MajorE
It's making her nervous cause one thing is certain
    E MajorE
I don't have my head on straight
B minorBm
We're trying to get through each week
F# minorF#m
On two or three hours of sleep
E MajorE
I say to be patient
   E MajorE
That we're going to make it
                G+G
I have to admit that I'm struggling

Pre-Chorus:
G+G
They say take it slow
B minorBm
But the world keeps spinning
           F# minorF#m
And that I don't control
F# minorF#m
And so there I go
E MajorE
Trying to act normal
E MajorE
So they won't know that


Chorus:

B minorBm         F# minorF#m      E MajorE
I'm just trying to hold my shit together
 E MajorE
Together, darling
B minorBm         F# minorF#m      E MajorE
I'm just trying to hold my shit together

Together, darling

Verse 2:

B minorBm
They say that they sympathize
F# minorF#m
I'm grateful they take the time
E MajorE
But bringing it up at this six year old birthday
     E MajorE
It kinda fucks up my vibe
B minorBm
We end on an awkward note
F# minorF#m
I make the most awkward joke
E MajorE
Too dark to be funny
 E MajorE
I shouldn't have come, it'd be weird to go home
       G+G
And I'm struggling


Pre-Chorus:

G+G
They say take it slow
B minorBm
But the world keeps spinning
           F# minorF#m
And that I don't control
F# minorF#m
And so there I go
E MajorE
Trying to act normal
E MajorE
So they won't know

B minorBm         F# minorF#m      E MajorE
I'm just trying to hold my shit together

I'm just trying to hold my shit together
 E MajorE
Together, darling
