Crocodile rock

Elton John

 G   Bm   C    D

      G   
I remember when rock was young, 
	Bm
Me and Suzy had so much fun
	C
Holdin' hands and skimmin' stones
	D
Had an old gold chevy and a place of my own


But the biggest kick I ever got
Was doin' a thing called Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were rockin' round the clock
We were  hoppin' and boppin to the Crocodile Rock, well


Em
Crocodile Rockin' is somethin' shockin'
	   A7
When your feet just can't keep still
D7
Never knew me a better time
       G
And I guess I never will
E
Oh! Lordy mama, those Friday nights
     A7
When Suzy wore her dresses tight
 D7				C
Crocodile Rockin' was ou-out of sight 

G		Em		C		D
La, la-la-la-la la, la-la-la-la la, la-la-la-la la,


But the years went by and rock just died
Suzy went and left me for some foreign guy
Long nights cryin' by the record machine
Dreamin' of my chevy and my old blue jeans
But they'll never kill the thrills we got
Burnin' up to the Crocodile Rock
Learnin' fast as the weeks went past
We really thought the Crocodile rock would last, well
