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