G                                 C
When I left your house the first time
D                                             G
I had this feeling like I'd left something behind
           G
I checked both of my pockets,
had my keys and my wallet
        C
Had my necklace and my phone
D
How am I missin' something
        G
That I didn't know existed like a week ago?

When I kissed your lips the first time
I had this feeling like I'd left something behind
I spent eighteen months thinking I was messed up
And I'd never learn to let it go
Now here you are shaking the fear
That love could only ever be what I've already known

   Am             D          G         C
I say the right thing, it's kinda my thing
Am        D          G         C
Losing myself tryna fix everything
      Am           D        G           C
It's shit from my past, I know you get that
      Am              D         G              C
It's just what I've learned and all that I've had

Chorus:
 C                                    G
Love don't work if I don't hold it together
   G                                    C
It all gets worse if I don't hold it together
      C                            D
And I'm afraid to love this way forever
                  D            D#dim           Em
I wanna let you know me ways I never would've let
her
 C                                  G
Take my heart and we can hold it together

This is nothing like the first time
You don't remind me of a thing
And we both got memories
But when you're next to me all that I see
Is you in front of me

I say the right thing, it's kinda my thing
Losing myself tryna fix everything

Chorus:
Love don't work if I don't hold it together
It all gets worse if I don't hold it together
And I'm afraid to love this way forever
I wanna let you know me ways I never would've let
her
Take my heart and we can hold it together
Could this work if I don't hold it together?
Of all my habits, I just like you better
I wanna let you know me ways I never would've let
her
Take my heart and we can hold it together

           G    C
Hold it together
           G
Hold it together
