Need a router bit...

I built a deck on my house and need a router bit to trim the edges of the 5/4 decking board flush with the 2'' x 10'' frame under them. I want the bit to have the wheel on the end to follow the 2'' x 10''s but to trim the 5/4 board with the same round edge as they already have. What is this bit called?
I hope this makes sense, my carpentry terminology probably isn't up to snuff.
 
It might have to be two bits - use a flush cut with a roller end first, then come back on a second pass with a round-over bit of the appropriate radius to match what's existing.

OK can I get the round-over bit with a roller end on it also so I don't gouge my edges?

Yeah, they usually come with roller ends on them.
 
I've got a 1/4" round over bit if you want to borrow it.
