Up On The Roof Live Chords

(ver. 1)
Carole King
[Intro]
Dm
 
[Verse 1]
      C              Bm      Am             G
When this old world starts getting me down
    F          Em       Dm             C    F  G C
And people are just too much for me to face
   C           Bm     Am                G
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
    F                 Dm                 C    F  G C
And all my cares just drift right into space
 
[Chorus]
F                  F             F   F    Em Dm
On the roof it's peaceful as can  be
    C                 Am               Gm   Bb
And there the world below can't bother me
 
[Verse 2]
   F                        Bb         Am
So when I come home feelin' tired and beat
     Gm               C                F    Bb C Bb C
I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet
     F                      Dm       Am
I'll get far away from the hustling crowd
    Gm                 C                 F       Am Bb  C  F
And all that rat-race noise down in the street
   Bb         C    Dm               C
oh,up on the roof, that's the only place
   Bb  C                   Dm  C
I know that they said you'd be,
       F               Dm           Am Bb
where you just have to wish to make it sooo...
      Bb          F    C   Dm   C
let's go up on my roof
Gm  Am Bb   C
F   C  Bb C F
 
[Chorus 2]
   F                    F            F      F
At night the stars put on a show for free
    C               Am                Dm   C  N.C.
And darling you can share it all with me, ohh
 
 
[Verse 3]
N.C.
Keep on tellin' you that
F                      Dm        C
Right smack dab in the middle of town
     Gm           C                              F     Bb C Bb C
I've found a paradise that's just about trouble proof
    F                        Dm          C
And if this old world starts getting you down
        G                C             F     F
There's room enough for two up on my roof
 
[Outro]
          Gm Am Bb  C
up on my roof      oh yeah
        F    Dm  C
up on my roof
    Gm     Am       Bb      C
(up on the   roof on  the roof)
F                                       Dm
Put down what you're doing tonight and climb up the stairs with me and see
 Gm     Am       Bb      C
   (baby, baby,     baby)
             F                      Dm
you got the stars above us, and the city lights below
 Gm   Am    Bb        C
ohhh,       yeah-yeah yeah
         F           Dm
up on my roof, again    up on the roof
 Gm   Am    Bb        C
up on the roof
F
