 	When this old world starts getting me down
		      Bb        F/A      Gm7     Bb/C    F    Intro Riff
		And people are just too much for me to face
		      F        Am/E          Bb/D     F/C                 
		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
		     Dm7       F/C    Bb          F/A  Gm7  Bb/C  
		And there the world below don't bother me
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/carole_king/up_on_the_roof_crd_ver_2.html ]
		   
		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 free
		
		And if this old world starts getting you down
		There's room enough for two up on the roof

	                  Gm7 Bb/C
