[Ab]
When this old world [Fm] starts getting me down [Db] and people are just [Bbm] too much [Eb] for me to [Ab] face
I climb way up [Fm] to the top of the stairs [Db] and all my cares [Eb] just drift right into [Ab] space
[Db] On the roof [Bbm] it's peaceful as [Db] can [Bbm] be [Ab] and there's no one [Fm]
below can bother [Db] me
So [Fm] let me [Ab] tell you now when I come home [Fm] feeling tired and beat
air is fresh [Ab] and sweet
I get away [Fm] from the hustling crowd

_ _ When this old world [Fm] starts getting me down [Db] and people are just [Bbm] too much [Eb] for me to [Ab] _ face _ _
I _ climb way up [Fm] to the top of the stairs [Db] and all my cares [Eb] just drift right into [Ab] _ _ _ space
_ _ _ [Db] On the roof [Bbm] it's peaceful as [Db] can _ _ _ [Bbm] be _ [Ab] and there's no one [Fm]
below can bother [Db] _ me
_ [Eb]
So [Fm] let me [Ab] tell you now when I come home [Fm] feeling tired and beat
I [Db] go up where [Eb] the air is fresh [Ab] and sweet
Up on the roof _ _ I get away [Fm] from the hustling crowd
[Db] And all that rat [Eb] race noise down in [Ab] the street
Up on the roof
_ _ [Db] On the roof [Bbm] the only place [Db] I know [Bbm] where _ _ [Ab] you just _ [Fm] _
_ _ [Db] sit so
_ [Eb] Let's go up on [Ab] the roof
Up on the _ roof
_ _ _ _ [Fm] _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ [Eb] _ [Ab] _ _ At _ _
_ _ _ [Db] night the stars [Bbm] put on a show [Db] for three _ _
[Bbm] _ _ [Ab] And darling you [Fm] can share it [Db] all with _ me
[Eb]
I keep on [G] telling [Ab] you a right to smack dab in [Fm] the middle of town
[Db] I found a _ [Eb] paradise that's trouble [Ab]-free
Up on the roof
_ And if this world [Fm] starts getting you down there's [Db] room enough for [Eb] two
Up [Ab] on the roof _ _ _
_ Up [Fm] on the roof _ _
Come [Ab] on baby _ _
Come [Fm] on darling
Up on the roof
_ _ [Ab] _ Up on _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ the roof
Big [D] _ [C] girls [Dm]
don't [G] cry
_ [D] Big girls don't cry
[G] _ _ [E] _ _ [Am] _ _ [D] _
[G] Big [Em] _ [Am] girls
_ [D] _ _
[G] _ [E] They _ [Am] [D] don't cry [G] _
