Roll Over Beethoven
Chuck Berry
| E |
| I'm gonna write a little letter, |
| E |
| Gonna mail it to my local DJ. |
| A |
| It's a | rockin' rhythm record |
| E |
| I want my jockey to | play. |
| B | E |
| Roll | over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again to | day. |
You know, my temperature's risin'
And the jukebox blows a fuse.
My heart's beatin' rhythm
And my soul keeps on singin' the blues.
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news.
I got the rockin' pneumonia,
I need a shot of rhythm and blues.
I think I'm rollin' arthritis
Sittin' down by the rhythm review.
Roll over Beethoven rockin' in two by two.

| E |
| well, if you feel you like it |
| E |
| go get your lover, then reel and rock it. |
| E | A |
| roll it over and | move on up just |
| A | E |
| a trifle further and | reel and rock it, roll it over, |
| E | B |
| roll | over Beethoven rockin' in two by two. |
Well, early in the mornin' I'm a-givin' you a warnin'
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes.
Hey diddle diddle, I am playin' my fiddle,
Ain't got nothin' to lose.
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news.
You know she wiggles like a glow worm,
Dance like a spinnin' top.
She got a crazy partner,
Oughta see 'em reel and rock.
Long as she got a dime the music will never stop.
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven and dig these rhythm and blues.
