Capo 3rd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
When this old world starts a getting me down, [ D Bm7 F#m7 ]
And people are just too much for me to face, [ ( )]
I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs, [ D Bm7 F#m7 ]
And all my cares just drift right into space. [ (
)]
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be, [ (D/ )]
And there the world below don't bother me, no, no. [D A/d Bm7 F#m7 Em7
]
So when I come home feeling tired and beat, [ D Bm7 F#m7 ]
I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet, [ ( )
]
I'll get far away from the hustling crowd, [ D Bm7 F#m7 ]
And all the rat race noise down in the street. [ Em7 G/a (D A/d D G/a A
) ]
On the roof, that's the only place I know, [ (D/
) ]
Where you just have to wish to make it so. [ D A/d Bm7 F#m7 Em7]
Let's go up on the roof. [ tacet ]
[ /f# / G/ ]
At night the stars put on show for free [ (D/ )
]
And, darling, you can share it all with me. [ D A/d Bm7 F#m7 Em7 ]
That's what I said. Keep on telling you that [ G/a ]
right smack dab in the middle of town, [ D Bm7 F#m7 ]
I found paradise that's trouble proof. [ (A/ G/ ) ]
And if this old world starts a getting you down, [ D Bm7 F#m7 ]
There's room enough for two up on the roof. [ Em7 G/a ]
[ /f# ]
