[Verse 1]
G                          Em
When this old world starts getting me down

    C                   Am7      D     G
And people are just too much for me to face

                         Em
I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs

    C                 Am7   D          G
And all my cares just drift right into space
[Chorus]
C
On the roof it's peaceful as can be

    G                 Em               C
And there the world below can't bother me

D
 Let Me Tell You Now
[Verse 2]
   G                        Em
So when I come home feelin' tired and beat

     C               Am7    D         G
I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet

                       Em
I'll get away from the hustling crowd

    C                 Am7   D           G
And all that rat-race noise down in the street
[Chorus]
C
On the roof that's the only place I know

      G                Em              C
Where you just have to wish to make it so

     D
Lets go up on the roof      
[Interlude] G Em C Am7 D G [Chorus]
C
At night the stars put on a show for free

    G               Em                C
And darling you can share it all with me

D
 I keep on telling you that  
[Verse 3]
G                      Em
Right smack dab in the middle of town

     C           Am7         D       G
I've found a paradise that's trouble proof

       G                     Em
And if this old world starts getting you down

        C               Am7 D         G     Em
There's room enough for two up on the roof
[Outro]
          C    D
Up on the roof

              G         Em
Everything is all right

          C    D
Up on the roof

             G    Em
Oh.. come on baby..

          C    D
Up on the roof

              G         Em
Everything is all right

          C    D
Up on the roof
