The Drifters – Up On The Roof (Guitar)

G6
(Up on the roof)

G6
(Up on the roof)

G6                         Em7
When this old world starts getting me down

     C                 Am7      C/D       G6
And people are just too much for me to face (Up on the roof)

G6                   Em7
I climb way up to the top of the stairs

     C                 Am7      C/D       G6
And all my cares just drift right into space (Up on the roof)

C                 C6          Cmaj7     C6
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be

    G6                  Em7             C6   D9
And there, the world below can't bother me

     G6                  Em7
When I come home feeling tired and beat

  C               Am7      C/D       G6
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (Up on the roof)

  G6                Em7
I get away from the hustling crowds

    C                 Am7   C/D         G6
And all that rat race noise down in the street (Up on the roof)

C                 C6          Cmaj7     C6
On the roof's the only place I know

     G6                Em7             C6   D9
Where you just have to wish to make it so

                   G6
Let's go up on the roof (Up on the roof)

   C                   C6          Cmaj7     C6
At night, the stars put on a show for free

    G6                Em7            C6      D9
And, darling, you can share it all with me

G6                     Em7
Right smack dab in the middle of town

  C            Am7       C/D       G6
I found a paradise that's trouble-proof (Up on the roof)

       G6                Em7
And if this world starts getting you down

        C               Am7     C/D      G6
There's room enough for two up on the roof (Up on the roof)

              Em7
Up on the roof (Up on the roof)

                G6
Oh, come on, baby (Up on the roof)

                 Em7
Oh, come on, honey (Up on the roof)

                  G6
Everything is all right (Up on the roof)
