On the roof and listen to the Miracles

Echo through the alley down below, oh yeah

Let's dance together just for the night

They wish us luck but they think we're just dreaming

F#m
Let's prove them wrong, baby

                     Bm
'Cause you know what luck is luck is believing you're lucky

               F#m                          E
That's all and showing just a little bit of faith
[Pre-chorus]

Listen, I got plans for us playing like a skip on a record

           D              F#m
Through my head all night long

            F#m                E/G#              A          Bm
But when we walk that darkened stairway and step out on the roof

C#m               D                E7sus2
I know what we're feeling can't be wrong, ah yeah

We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go

F#m                           E
On the roof and listen to the Miracles

                 Bm
Echo through the alley down below
Let the Temptations sing it one time

F#m                           E
On the roof and listen to the Miracles

                 Bm
Echo through the alley down below, oh yeah
