The Drifters – Up On The Roof (Guitar)

G                          Em
When this old world starts getting me down

    C                   D              G
And people are just too much for me to face

                      Em
I climb way up to the top of the stairs

    C                 D                G
And all my cares just drift right into space

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

    G                 Em               C   D
And there the world below can't bother me

G                        Em
When I come home feelin' tired and beat

  C               D                G
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof)

                    Em
I get away from the hustling crowd

    C                 D                 G
And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof)

C
On the roof, the only place I know

      G                Em              C   D
Where you just have to wish to make it so

                   G
Let's go up on the roof (up on the roof)

C
At night the stars put on a show for free

     G                Em                C   D
And, darling, you can share it all with me

G                      Em
Right smack dab in the middle of town

     C           D                   G
I've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof)

    G                    Em
And if this world starts getting you down

        C               D
There's room enough for two

          G   Em
Up on the roof (up on the roof)

          G       Em
Up on the roo-oo-oof (up on the roof)

         G       Em
Oh, come on, baby (up on the roof)

         G        Em
Oh, come on, honey (up on the roof)
