Elton John, Crocodile Rock (1972)
Key: :[F] (w: Bernie Taupin, Elton John)
INTRO: [F] [Dm] [A#] [C]
VERSE 1:
I
[F] remember when rock was young
Me and
[Am] Suzy had so much fun
Holdin'
[A#] hands and skimmin' stones
Had an
[C] old gold Chevy and a place of my own
VERSE 2:
But the
[F] biggest kick I ever got
Was doin' a
[Am] thing called Crocodile Rock
While the
[A#] other kids were rockin' round the clock
We were
[C] hoppin' and boppin to the Crocodile Rock, well
CHORUS:
[Dm] Crocodile Rockin' is somethin' shockin'
When your
[G] feet just can't keep still
[C] Never knew me a better time
And I
[F] guess I never will
Oh
[D] lordy mama, those Friday nights
When
[G] Suzy wore her dresses tight
[C] Crocodile Rockin' was ou-out of ^
[A#sus4]^
[A#] sight
BRIDGE:
[F] La-a-a, la-la-la-la
[Dm] la
La-la-la-la
[A#] la, La-la-la-la
[C] la
VERSE 3:
But the
[F] years went by and rock just died
[Am] Suzy went and left us for some foreign guy
[A#] Long nights cryin' by the record machine
[C] Dreamin' of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
VERSE 4:
But they'll
[F] never kill the thrills we got
Burnin'
[Am] up to the Crocodile Rock
Learnin'
[A#] fast as the weeks went past
We really
[C] thought the Crocodile rock would last, well
