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
