CROCODILE ROCK   (Elton John)   
 
 
     G 
I remember when rock was young
       Bm 
me and Suzie had do much fun
          C        
Holding hands and skimmin' stones
        D  
had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own
         G
But the biggest kick I ever got
              Bm         
was doin' a thing called the crocodile rock
          C
While the other kids were rockin'round the clock 
         D
We were hoppin' and boppin' to the croc-a-dile rock 



    Em 
Well  Croc-o-dile rockin' is something shockin'
           A7
when your feet just can't keep still
D7                                      G
  I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
E
 Oh Lawdy mama those Friday nights
     A7
when Susie wore her dresses tight
     D7                                  C  G Em C D
and the croc-o-dile rockin' was out of sight


          G            
But the years went by and rock just died 
Bm  
Susie went and left us for some foreign  guy
    C
Long nights cryin' by the record machine
  D   
dreamin' of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
             G
but they'll never kill the thrills we've got
        Bm
burning up to the croc-a-dile rock 
          C           
Learning fast till the weeks went past 
    D
we really thought the croc-o-dile rock would last

    Em
Well  Croc-o-dile rockin' is something shockin'
           A7
when your feet just can't keep still
D7                                      G
  I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
E
 Oh Lawdy mama those Friday nights
     A7
when Susie wore her dresses tight
     D7                                  C  G Em C D
and the croc-o-dile rockin' was out of sight
