UP ON THE ROOF
by Gerry Goffin & Carole King
C Am
When this old world starts getting me down
F Dm C
And people are just too much for me to face
C Am
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
F Dm C
And all my cares just drift right in to space
F
On the roof it's peaceful as can be
C G G7
And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now
C Am
When I come home feelin' tired and beat
F Dm C
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet
C Am
I get away from the hustling crowds
F Dm C
And all that rat race noise down in the street
F
On the roof's the only place I know
C G G7
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Oh, let's go up on the roof
Solo: C Am F Dm C
F
At night the stars put on a show for free
C G G7
And darling, you can share it all with me
I keep a-telling you
C Am
Right smack dab in the middle of town
F Dm C
I found a paradise that's trouble proof
C Am
So if this world starts getting you down
F Dm C
there's room enough for two up on the roof
F
Up on the roof
C
Everything's all right
F
Up on the roof
C
Oh, come on baby
F
Up on the roof
C
Up on the roof
Outro: C Am F Dm C
