CODA: (Octave Lead over) |D D9| [End] NOTES: 1. “…The vast majority of The Beatles' Chuck Berry covers were sung by Lennon. Indeed, he sang 'Roll Over Beethoven' until 1961, when George Harrison took over on lead. It remained in the group's set until the end of their US tour in September 1964. It became one of three vocal spots for Harrison on "With The Beatles", the others being ‘Devil In Her Heart’ and his own ‘Don't Bother Me’. ‘I sang Roll Over Beethoven for With The Beatles - it was a song I liked. I had the Chuck Berry record and I used to sing it in the clubs.’ - George Harrison, Anthology. …” 2. This is my take on the words and rhythm chords of the Beatles version and doesn’t pretend to capture the lead riffs which are documented on UG http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/search.php?search_type=title&value=roll+over+beethoven+beatles and here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2b2QmtXbXh4, amongst other sites.
