Up On The Roof Chords by James Taylor

[G] _ [F] _ _ [Bbm] _ _ [Cm] _ _
[F] When this old world [Dm] starts a getting me [Am] [G] down
And people [C] are just too much for me to [F] face
[C] _ [F] _ [Bb] _ _ [C] _ _ [F]
I'll climb way up [Dm] to the top [Am] of the [Gm] stair
And all my [C] cares just [Bb] drip [F] right into [C] space
[F] _ [Bb] [C] On [F] _ _ [Bb] _
[C] the roof, [Bb] it's peaceful [C] as [Gm] can [F] be
[Bb] And [Gm] _ [C] _ _ [F]
there the [C] world [Dm] below [Am] don't bother [Gm] _
me
_ [Bb] _ _ So [F]
when I come home, [Dm] feeling tired [Am] and beat
[Gm]
I'll go up where the [Bb] air [C] is fresh [F] and [C] sweet
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [C] _ [F] I'll get far away [Dm] from the [Am] hustling crowd
[Gm] And all that rat [Bb]-race snow _ [C] down in [F] the [C] _ [F] [Bb] street
[C] _ [F] _ _ _ [Bb]
On [C] the roof, [Bb] that's the only [C] place I [Gm]
know
[F] Look at the [Bb] city baby, [C] _ [F] where you [C] just have to [Dm] wish [Am] to make [Gm] it so
_ Let's go [C] up on [F] the roof
[C] _ [Dm] _ [C] _ [Dm] _ _ [Gm] _
[F] _ _ _ [Bb] _ [Gm] _ [C] _ [F] _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ [C] _ [F] _ _ [Bb] And [C] nightly stars, [Bb] they put on [C] a show [Gm] for free
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [C] _ [F] And darling, you [C] [Dm] can't share it [Am] all [Gm] with me
Just [F] what I said, [Bb] keep on telling [F] you that right smack down
[Dm] In the middle [Am] of town, [Gm] I found a [Bb] paradise, _ [C] trouble [F]
[C]-free
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [C] _ [F] And if this old world [Dm] starts a getting [Am] you down
[Gm] There's room enough [Bb] for two
Up [F] on the roof
_ _ [Dm] Up _ [Gm] on the [F] roof
[A] _ [Bb] _ [Gm] Up [F] on the _ _ _ [Dm] roof
_ _ [Gm] _
[F] Oh now, _ [Bb] _ _ [Gm] _ [F] _ _
everything [Dm] is alright, everything is [Gm]
alright
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [C] _ [F] Come on, _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _
I'll put you to it [Dm] tonight and climb up the stairs and meet [G] you baby
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] We got the stars above and [Dm] the city lights below
_ [G]
Up [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [C] [F] on the roof
_ _ [C] _ [Dm] _ _ _ [G] _ _
[F] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [C] _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
