Subject: HOLDING THINGS TOGETHER

HOLDING THINGS TOGETHER

Words and music by Merle Haggard

CHORUS

CAPO: 1st FRET KEY: Bb PLAY: A

[A] HOLDING [E] THINGS [A] TOGETHER

Ain't no easy [A7] thing to [D] do

When it comes to raisin' [A] children

It's a job - meant for [E] two

[A] Alice [E] please be-[A]lieve me

I can't go [A7] on and [D] on

Holding things [A] together [E]

With you [A] gone.

Today was [E] Angie's [A] birthday

I guess it [A7] slipped your [D] mind

I tried twice to [A] call you

But no answer either [E] time

But the [A] postman [E] brought a [A] present

I mailed some [A7] days [D] ago

I just signed it love from [A] mama

So [E] Angie wouldn't [A] know.

CHORUS

Alice please believe me

I can't go on and on

Holding things together

With you gone.

Note. From Merle Haggard and The Strangers
