Intro:
DmDm

Verse 1:
   C majorC       B minorBm   A minorAm       G+G
When this old world starts getting me down
  FF     E minorEm    DmDm       C majorC  FF G+G C majorC
And people are just too much for me to face
  C majorC      B minorBm   A minorAm        G+G
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
  FF         DmDm         C majorC  FF G+G C majorC
And all my cares just drift right into space


Chorus:
FF         FF       FF  FF  E minorEm DmDm
On the roof it's peaceful as can be
  C majorC         A minorAm        G minorGm  Bb majorBb
And there the world below can't bother me

Verse 2:
  FF            Bb majorBb     A minorAm
So when I come home feelin' tired and beat
   G minorGm        C majorC        FF  Bb majorBb C majorC Bb majorBb C majorC
I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet
   FF           DmDm    A minorAm
I'll get far away from the hustling crowd
  G minorGm         C majorC         FF    A minorAm Bb majorBb C majorC FF
And all that rat-race noise down in the street
  Bb majorBb     C majorC  DmDm        C majorC
oh,up on the roof, that's the only place
  Bb majorBb C majorC          DmDm C majorC
I know that they said you'd be,
    FF        DmDm      A minorAm Bb majorBb
where you just have to wish to make it sooo...

FF  C majorC Bb majorBb C majorC FF

At night the stars put on a show for free

And darling you can share it all with me, ohh


Verse 3:
N.C.
Keep on tellin' you that

Right smack dab in the middle of town
   G minorGm      C majorC               FF   Bb majorBb C majorC Bb majorBb C majorC
I've found a paradise that's just about trouble proof
