Up On The Roof Gerry Goffin and Carole King, 1962 (The Drifters)

When [ C ] this old world starts [Am] getting me down And [F] people are just too [ D m ] much for me to [C] face I [C] climb way up to the [ A m ] top of the stairs And [F] all my cares just [Dm] drift right in to [C] space

[F] On the roof it's peaceful as can be And [C] there the world below can't bother [G] me [G7]

(Let me tell you now)

When [ C ] I come home feelin' [ A m ] tired and beat I [F] go up where the [ D m ] air is fresh and [ C ] sweet I [C] get away from the [ A m ] hustling crowds And [F] all that rat race [Dm] noise down in the [C] street

[F] On the roof's the only place I know Where [ C ] you just have to wish to make it [ G ] so [G7]

(Oh, let's go up on the roof)

Instrumental: [ C] [Am] [F] [Dm] [C] [ C] [Am] [F] [Dm] [C]

At [F] night the stars put on a show for free And [C] darling, you can share it all with [G] me [G7]

(I keep a-telling you)

[C] Right smack dab in the [ A m ] middle of town I [F] found a para- [Dm] dise that's trouble [C] proof

So [C] if this old world starts [Am] getting you down There's [F] room enough for [Dm] two, up on the [C] roof

Up on the [ F ] roof Everything's [C] all right Up on the [ F ] roof Oh, come on [C] baby Up on the [ F ] roof Up on the [C] roof
