D riff {Easy way: Just play D, but it doesn't sound as cool} 
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 

D 
Roll over Beethoven 
D 
Roll over Beethoven

Roll over Beethoven 
D             G			    A 
Roll over Beethoven, stick to these rhythm and blues
