     D                       Bm7        F#m7
When this old world starts a getting me down

    Em7                  A7sus4              D Dsus2  D  G  A
And people are just too much      for me to face

      D                  Bm7         F#m7
I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs

    Em7               A7sus4                    D Dsus2  D  G  A  D
And all my cares just drift        right into space

G      A7         G/B      A7      Em7  D/F#  G  A7
On the roof, it's peaceful as can  be

     D        A/C#    Bm7       F#m7   Em7    A7sus4
And there the world below don't bother me, no, no

        D                   Bm7       F#m7
So when I come home feeling tired and beat

     Em7             A7sus4                 D Dsus2  D  G  A
I'll go up where the air     is fresh and sweet

         D                 Bm7       F#m7
I'll get far away from the hustling  crowd

    Em7              A7sus4               D Dsus2  D  G  A  D
And all the rat-race noise down in the street

G       A7               G/B     A7      Em7   D/F#  G  A7
On the roof, that's the  only   place I know

       D      A/C#     Bm7     F#m7    Em7
Where you just have to wish to make it so

      Asus4               D
Let's go       up on the roof

        G          A7
And at night the stars

     G/B       A7       Em7  D/F#  G  A7
they put on a show for free

      D       A/C#     Bm7        F#m7     Em7
And, darling, you can share  it   all with me

              A7sus4
That's what I said.     Keep on telling you that

D                       Bm7      F#m7
Right smack dab in the middle of town,

   Em7       A7sus4                  D   Dsus2  D   G   A
I found a paradise that's trouble proof

        D                       Bm7        F#m7
And if this old world starts a getting you down

        Em7             A7sus4
There's room enough for two

           D Dsus2  D  B7sus2  Bm7  B7sus2 Bm7
Up on a roof

            Em7  D/F#  G  A
Up on a roof

           D Dsus2  D  B7sus2  Bm7  B7sus2 Bm7
Up on a roof

      Em7  D/F#  G  A
Oh oh…

D  Dsus2  D    B7sus2  Bm7    B7sus2     Bm7    Em7  D/F#  G  A
Everything is alright,     everything is alright

      D Dsus2  D  B7sus2  Bm7  B7sus2  Bm7  Em7  D/F#  G  A
Come on

D              Dsus2      D         B7sus2        Bm7
Stop what you’re doing tonight and climb up the stairs

B7sus2    Bm7    Em7  D/F#  G  A
with me  and   see

            D   Dsus2   D
We got the stars up above

         B7sus2  Bm7    B7sus2  Bm7
and the city    lights   below

Em7      D/F#       G      A       D     Dsus2  D
 Oooooooooooohhhhhhhh,    up on a roof now
