How to make the tab key to show/hide GUIlayer

Question

I'm making a game and I think the GUI on the screen that shows the objective is distracting you from the game experience. Is there a way to make a script that if you hold the tab key, the GUIlayer is visible and that when you let go, the GUIlayer disappears?

Below is the psuedo-code for doing this:

 bool showGUI = false;
 
 void OnGUI(){
     if(showGUI) {
         // Show your GUI and perform the things to be done
     }
 }
 
 void Update(){
     if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Tab)){
         showGUI = true;
     }
     if(Input.GetKeyUp(KeyCode.Tab)){
         showGUI = false;
     }
 }
