Verse 1
C F
In my mind there's a fog
C F
San Francisco couldn't handle
C F
'Cause oh how this year's been a slog
C F
Melting both ends of the candle
C F
And how I wish I could claim
C F
That I don't harbor ill feelings
C F
As my anger's turning to shame
C F
And I stare a hole through the ceiling
Chorus
Am F
I'm trying to hold it together
C G
I'm trying to sleep through the night
Am F
I've got my windows open to the weather
C G
And I keep telling my friends I'm alright
Am F
Yeah I'm trying to hold it together
C G
Trying to take the first step
Am F
Into the arms of wherever
C
Whenever
(guitar 2 plays a C arpeggio)
Verse 2
C F
Every day I awake
C F
Like a stone over water
C F
Skipping across a lake
C F
Before I sink to the bottom
C F
And how I wish I could say
C F
That I'm immune to the mirror
C F
With temples fading to grey
C F
I'm seeing the end drawing nearer
Bridge
Am F
And I can scream and shout
Am F
Or learn to live without
Chorus
Am F
I'm trying to hold it together
C G
I'm trying to sleep through the night
Am F
I've got my windows open to the weather
C G
And I keep telling my friends I'm alright
Am F
Yeah I'm trying to hold it together
C G
Trying to take the first step
Am F
Into the arms of wherever
C
Whenever
