[Ebm]
[F] [Eb]
Well, I'm gonna write a little [Ab] letter, I'm gonna mail it to my [Eb] local DJ.
Yeah, it's a [Ab] jumpin' little record, I want my jockey to play.
[F] Roll over Beethoven, I gotta hear it [Eb] again today.
You know my temperature's risin', the jukebox blowin' a fuse.
[Ab] My heart's beatin' rhythm and my soul keep [Eb] a-singin' the blues.
Roll [F] over Beethoven, tell [Eb] Tchaikovsky you're new.
I got to rockin' pneumonia, I need a shot of rhythm and blues.
I caught the rollin' author [Ab] writer sittin' down at a rhythm [Eb] review.
[F] Roll over Beethoven, they're rockin' [Eb] in two by two.
Well, if you feel it and like it, go get your lover, then reel and rock it.
Roll it over, [Ab] then move on up just a [Eb] trifle further, then reel and rock with one another.
[F] Roll over Beethoven, dig these rhythms [Eb] and blues.
[F] [Eb]
Well, in the morning, I'm givin' you my money, don't you step on my blue suede shoes.
[Ab] Hey, diddle diddle, I'ma play my [Eb] fiddle, ain't got nothin' to lose.
[F] Roll over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky [Eb] you're new.
You know she wiggle like a go-on, dance like a spinnin' top.
She [Ab] got a crazy partner, [Eb] you oughta see him reel and rock.
[F] Long as she got a dime, the music won't never [Eb] stop.
Roll over Beethoven, roll over Beethoven.
Roll over [Abm] Beethoven, roll over [Eb] Beethoven.
Roll over Beethoven, dig to the rhythm and blues.
[F]
