D riff
I'm going to write a little letter gonna mail it to my local DJ
G riff D riff
It's a rocking little record I want my jockey to play
G riff A riff D riff
Roll over Beethoven, got to hear it again today
You know my temperature's rising and the jukebox blows a fuse
A heart beating rhythm and my soul keeps singing the blues
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news
I've got a rocking pneumonia, I need a shot of rhythm and blues (oooh!)
I think I caught it off the writer sitting down by the rhythm reviews
Roll over Beethoven, rocking in two by two
D
Well if your feelin' it and like it, then get your lover
And reel it, rock it, roll it over
G riff
Move on up just a trifle further
D
Reel it, rock it, 'n' roll it over
G riff A riff D riff
Roll over Beethoven, rocking in two by two

Well early in the morning I'm a giving you a warning
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Hey diddle diddle I'll 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, dance like a spinning top
She's got a crazy partner, wanna see him reel and rock
As long as she's got a dime the music will never stop
