Roll over Beethoven

Berry – Beatles: With the Beatles (1963)

(Intro:)

Riff_D G Riff_D

Well, I’m gonna write a little letter, gonna mail it to my local DJ

G Riff_D

It’s a rocking little record I want my jockey to play

G A Riff_D

Roll over Beethoven, gotta hear it again today

You know my temperature’s rising and the juke box blows a fuse

My heart beating rhythm and my soul keeps a-singing the blues

Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news

I got a rocking pneumonia, I need a shot of rhythm and blues

I think I caught arthiritis sitting down by the rhythm reviews

Roll over Beethoven, the’re rocking in two by two

D

Well, if you’re feeling like it, go get your lover

And reel and rock it, roll it over

G

And move on up just a trifle further

D

And reel and rock it, roll it over

G A D

Roll over Beethoven, rocking in two by two

(Solo:) D G D G D G A D

Early in the morning I’m giving you the warning

Don’t you step on my blue suede shoes,

Hey diddle diddle I will play my fiddle, ain’t got nothing to lose

Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news

You know she winks like a glow-worm darts like a spinning top

She’s got a crazy partner ought to see her real and rock

As long as she got a dime, the music will never stop

D

Roll over Beethoven, roll over Beethoven

G D

Roll over Beethoven, roll over Beethoven

A (End:) D

Roll over Beethoven, beat to these rhythm and blues
