Merging two text files side by side

Hi everyone,

I need to merge two files side by side

The files look something like this:
Code:
HOSTNAME
 fishtornado-K52F 127.0.1.1
UPTIME
 20:17:01 up 2:19, 3 users, 
 load average: 0.00, 0.04, 0.05
DISK USAGE
 (Size/Used/Avail/Use%)
 29G 6.5G 21G 25%
RUN QUEUE
  PID COMMAND         USER     %CPU %MEM
 2035 chromium-browse 1000      3.1 10.8
 1955 chromium-browse 1000      1.9  2.5
 1708 gnome-shell     1000      1.5  2.5
 1195 Xorg            root      1.3  0.6
 2614 chromium-browse 1000      1.0  1.5

The desirable output would be something similar to this:
Code:
HOSTNAME	                                HOSTNAME
 fishtornado-K52F 127.0.1.1	                 fishtornado-K52F 127.0.1.1
UPTIME	                                        UPTIME
 21:06:05 up 3:08, 3 users, 	                 21:06:08 up 3:08, 3 users, 
 load average: 0.05, 0.04, 0.05	                 load average: 0.05, 0.04, 0.05
DISK USAGE	                                DISK USAGE
 (Size/Used/Avail/Use%)	                         (Size/Used/Avail/Use%)
 29G 6.5G 21G 25%	                         29G 6.5G 21G 25%
RUN QUEUE	                                RUN QUEUE     
  PID COMMAND         USER     %CPU %MEM          PID COMMAND         USER     %CPU %MEM
 2035 chromium-browse 1000      2.5  9.5	 2035 chromium-browse 1000      2.5  9.5
 1955 chromium-browse 1000      2.3  2.6	 1955 chromium-browse 1000      2.3  2.6
 4584 chromium-browse 1000      2.2  1.9	 4584 chromium-browse 1000      2.2  1.9
 1708 gnome-shell     1000      1.6  2.5	 1708 gnome-shell     1000      1.6  2.5
 1195 Xorg            root      1.4  0.6	 1195 Xorg            root      1.4  0.6

I tried using the paste command and various awk scripts but the rows always came out to be scrambled.

Like this (result of paste):
Code:
HOSTNAME	HOSTNAME
 fishtornado-K52F 127.0.1.1	 fishtornado-K52F 127.0.1.1
UPTIME	UPTIME
 21:06:05 up 3:08, 3 users, 	 21:06:08 up 3:08, 3 users, 
 load average: 0.05, 0.04, 0.05	 load average: 0.05, 0.04, 0.05
DISK USAGE	DISK USAGE
 (Size/Used/Avail/Use%)	 (Size/Used/Avail/Use%)
 29G 6.5G 21G 25%	 29G 6.5G 21G 25%
RUN QUEUE	RUN QUEUE
  PID COMMAND         USER     %CPU %MEM	  PID COMMAND         USER     %CPU %MEM
 2035 chromium-browse 1000      2.5  9.5	 2035 chromium-browse 1000      2.5  9.5

 4584 chromium-browse 1000      2.2  1.9	 4584 chromium-browse 1000      2.2  1.9
 1708 gnome-shell     1000      1.6  2.5	 1708 gnome-shell     1000      1.6  2.5
 1195 Xorg            root      1.4  0.6	 1195 Xorg            root      1.4  0.6

Thank you in advance for your help.

avahi-browse(1) 					      General Commands Manual						   avahi-browse(1)

NAME
avahi-browse - Browse for mDNS/DNS-SD services using the Avahi daemon SYNOPSIS
avahi-browse [options] service-type avahi-browse [options] --all avahi-browse [options] --browse-domains avahi-browse [options] --dump-db avahi-browse-domains [options] DESCRIPTION
Browse for mDNS/DNS-SD network services and browsing domains using the Avahi daemon. The daemon is not the standard Avahi daemon but a proxy to a Bonjour daemon. OPTIONS
Specify a DNS-SD service type (e.g. _http._tcp) to browse for on the command line, or -a to browse for all available service types. Items that appear on the network are prefixed with "+", items that disappear are prefixed with "-". If --resolve is passed items that are resolved are prefixed with "=". -a | --all Browse for all service types registered on the LAN, not just the one specified on the command line. -D | --browse-domains Browse for browsing domains instead for services. avahi-browse-domains is equivalent to avahi-browse --browse-domains -d | --domain= DOMAIN Browse in the specified domain. If omitted avahi-browse will browse in the default browsing domain (usually .local) -v | --verbose Enable verbose mode. -t | --terminate Terminate after dumping a more or less complete list. -c | --cache Terminate after dumping all entries available in the cache. -l | --ignore-local Ignore local services, show only remote services. -r | --resolve Automatically resolve services found. -f | --no-fail Don't fail if the daemon is not found running. Instead, wait until it appears. If it disconnects, try to reconnect. -p | --parsable Make output easily parsable for usage in scripts. If enabled fields are seperated by semicolons (;), service names are escaped. It is recommended to combine this with --no-db-lookup. -k | --no-db-lookup Don't lookup services types in service type database. -b | --dump-db Dump the service type database (may be combined with -k) -h | --help Show help. -V | --version Show version information.
