Up On The Roof Chords
The Drifters (Carole King)
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
Let me tell you now
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
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
I keep a-tellin' you
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)
C D
Up on the roo-oo-oof (up on the roof)
C D
Oh, come on, baby (up on the roof)
C D
Oh, come on, honey (up on the roof)
