I'm gonna write a little letter,
      G                    D
Gonna mail it to my local DJ.
       G
It's a rockin' little record
                    D
I want my jockey to play.
     A7                      G               D
Roll over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again today.

D
You know, my temperature's risin'
        G               D
And the jukebox blows a fuse.
   G
My heart's beatin' rhythm
                                 D
And my soul keeps on singin' the blues.
     A7                 G                    D
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news.

D
I got the rockin' pneumonia,
  G                         D
I need a shot of rhythm and blues.
          G
I think I caught it off the writer
                             D
Sittin' down by the rhythm reviews.
     A7             G                 D
Roll over Beethoven rockin' in two by two.

D
well, if you feel it and like it

go get your lover, then reel and rock it.
                 G
roll it over and move on up just
                     D
a trifle further and reel and rock it, roll it over,
     A7             G                 D
roll over Beethoven rockin' in two by two.

D                                G
Well, early in the mornin' I'm a-givin' you the warnin'
          D
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes.
G
Hey diddle diddle, I am playin' my fiddle,
D
Ain't got nothin' to lose.
     A7                 G                    D
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news.

D
You know she wiggles like a glow worm,
G                     D
Dance like a spinnin' top.
            G
She's got a crazy partner,
                        D
Oughta see 'em reel and rock.
        A7                 G                D
Long as she got a dime the music will never stop.

A7           D
Roll over Beethoven,

Roll over Beethoven,
             G
Roll over Beethoven,
             D
Roll over Beethoven,
             A7         G                       D      G  D
Roll over Beethoven and dig to these rhythm and blues.
