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