VERSE 1:
           D
I’m gonna write a little letter,
      G                   D
Gonna mail it to my local D.J..
       G
It's a rocking little record,
                    D
I want my jockey to play.

Roll over Beethoven,

I gotta hear it again today.


VERSE 2:
            D
You know my temperature's rising,
        G                     D
And the jukebox's blown a fuse.
             G
My heart’s a beating rhythm,
                              D
And my soul keeps a-singin’ the blues.
     G
Roll over Beethoven,
A                    D
Tell Tchaikovsky the news.


VERSE 3:
          D
I got the rocking pneumonia,
       G                    D
I need a shot of rhythm and blues.
          G
I think I got it off the writer,
                           D
Sittin' down by the rhythm review.
     G
Roll over Beethoven,
      A                D
We're rockin' in two by two.


VERSE 4:
            D
Well if you feel you like it,
                                      D
Well get your lover and reel and rock it.
                 G7
Roll it over and move on up,

Just a trifle further.
D
And reel and rock it,

Roll it over.
     G
Roll over Beethoven,
  A                 D
A rocking in two by two.
