Am
She said, "Are you okay?"
G
And I'm staring into space
F
It's making her nervous cause one thing is certain
                        G
I don't have my head on straight
Am
We're trying to get through each week
G
On two or three hours of sleep
F
I say to be patient

That we're going to make it
                         G
I have to admit that I'm struggling


[Pre-Chorus]

Am
They say take it slow
        G
But the world keeps spinning
                 F
And that I don't control
F
And so there I go
F
Trying to act normal
F
So they won't know that…


[Chorus]

Am                 G              F
I'm just trying to hold my shit together
          G
Together, darling
Am                 G              F
I'm just trying to hold my shit together
          G
Together, darling


[Verse 2]

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

And I'm struggling


[Pre-Chorus]

Am
They say take it slow
        G
But the world keeps spinning
                 F
And that I don't control
F
And so there I go
F
Trying to act normal
F
So they won't know that…


[Chorus]

Am                 G              F
I'm just trying to hold my shit together
          G
Together, darling
Am                 G              F
I'm just trying to hold my shit together
          G
Together, darling


[Bridge]

Am               G            F
Oh, I don't know what else to try
                    G
Pretend I'm in control
     Am                 G              F
But, I'm just trying to hold my shit together
         G
Together darling

[Instrumental]

Am C G F G

[Chorus]

Am                 G              F
I'm just trying to hold my shit together

Together, darling
Am                 G              F
I'm just trying to hold my shit together
          G
Together, darling


[Outro]

Am               G            F
Oh, I don't know what else to try
                    G
Pretend I'm in control
     Am                 G              F
But, I'm just trying to hold my shit together
         G
Together darling
