Try this add android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" in your activity of manifest file like this

<activity
    android:name=".YourActivity"
    android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" />

and add NestedScrollView as parent of Your layout so you can scroll while keyboard is open

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context="com.ncrypted.bistrostays.activity.ReferralsActivity">

    <android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar">

        <include
            android:id="@+id/chat_page_toolbar"
            layout="@layout/toolbar_chat"></include>

    </android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>

    <android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior">


        <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
