Standard (EADGBE)

  When this old world starts getting me down

  And people are just too much for me to face

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

  And all my cares just drift right into space

  On the roof it's peaceful as can be

  And there the world below don't bother me

  So when I come home feelin' tired and beat

  I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet

  I'll get away from the hustling crowd

  And all that rat-race noise down in the street

  On the roof that's the only place I know

  Where you just have to wish to make it so

(Lets go up on the roof)

Lead

  At night the stars put on a show for free

  And darling you can share it all with me

I keep on telling you that

  Right smack dab in the middle of town

  I've found a paradise that's trouble proof

  And if this old world starts getting you down

  There's room enough for two up on the roof

  Up on the roof

  Up on the roof

  Up on the roof

All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.
