Up On The Roof by Laura Nyro
Up On The Roof
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 G7
When this old world starts getting me down
Fmaj7 G7(low) Cmaj7
And people are just too much for me to face
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 G7
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
Fmaj7 G79(low) Cmaj7
And all my cares just drift right in to space
Fmaj7
On the roof the only place I know
Em7 Dm7
You just have to wish to make it so
G79 Cmaj7
Up on the roof
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 G7
When I come home feelin' tired and beat
Fmaj7 G79(low) Cmaj7
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 G7
I get away from the hustling crowds
Fmaj7 G79(low) Cmaj7
And all that rat race noise down in the street
Fmaj7
At night the stars put on a show for free
Em7 Dm7
And darling, you can share it all with me
G7
Lets go, I keep a-telling you
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 G7
Right smack down in the middle of town
Fmaj7 G79(low) Cmaj7
I found a paradise that's trouble proof
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 G7
So if this world starts getting you down
Fmaj7 G79(low) Cmaj7
there's room enough for two up on the roof
CMaj7 Fmaj7
Up on the roof
Cmaj7
Everyhting's all right
Fmaj7
Up on the roof
Cmaj7
Oh, come on baby
Fmaj7
Up on the roof
Cmaj7
Up on the roof
