That's right.
Wait, did you overhear it?
I didn't notice that.

[C] When this [Em] old world [Am] starts getting me [C] down
[F] People are [C] just [F] too much for me [C] to face
[F] [G] I [C]
climb way up [B] to [Am] the top of the stairs
[C] [F] And all [C] my cares [Dm] just drift right into [C] space
[F] On the [G] roof, [F] it's peaceful [G] as [F] can [G] be
[F]
[Em] [C] Is there the [Em] world [Am] below can't bother [Gm] me?
So [Bb] [C] [F] when I'm cold, beat [Dm] and tired [C] and beat
[Gm] I won't go up where the air is fresh [F] and sweet
[C]

[Gm] And all that rat-race noise of the [F] street
[Bb] [C] [F] [Bb] Oh, [C]
[Bb] that's the [C] only place [Gm] I [F] know

me
[C] Oh, [Bb] keep [C] on telling [F] you that a right thing
Now [Dm] in the middle [Am] of my town I [Gm] found a paradise
Talk about bubble [F] poop
[Bb]

[Gm] There's room in the bowl to me, yeah
Up on [F] my roof
