Drifters - Up on the roof

^FWhen this old world starts ^Amgetting me down And ^Fpeople are just too ^Gmuch for me to ^Fface I climb way up to the ^Amtop of the stairs And ^Fall my cares just ^Gdrift right into ^Fspace

^FOn the roof, it's peaceful as can be And ^Fthere the world be^Amlow can't bother ^Fme ^G

^FWhen I come home feelin' ^Amtired and beat I ^Fgo up where the ^Gair is fresh and ^Fsweet (up on the roof) I get away from the ^Amhustling crowd And ^Fall that rat-race ^Gnoise down in the ^Fstreet (up on the roof)

^FOn the roof, the only place I know Where ^Fyou just have to ^Amwish to make it ^Fso ^G

^FAt night the stars put on a show for free And, ^Fdarling, you can ^Amshare it all with ^Fme ^G

^FRight smack dab in the ^Ammiddle of town I've ^Ffound a para^Gdise that's trouble ^Fproof (up on the roof) And ^Fif this world starts ^Amgetting you down There's ^Froom enough for ^Gtwo Up on the ^Froof^Am (up on the roof) Up on the ^Froo-oo-oof^G (up on the roof) Oh, come on, ^Fbaby ^G(up on the roof) Oh, come on, ^Fhoney^G (up on the roof)
