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