Roll Over Beethoven (Chuck Berry)
This is the Beatles cover version as on ‘With The Beatles.’ I have
Produced what I hope is correct, but am more than willing to listen
To any alterations anybody has (email me at [email protected]).
I was becoming frustrated with the wrong tabs submitted in the olga
And other places, so sat down and worked it out over the course of
A weekend. I thought I ought to share it with the world.
Enjoy
Alan

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
