Elton John, Crocodile Rock (1972)
Key: :[B] (w: Bernie Taupin, Elton John)
INTRO: [B] [G#m] [E] [F#]
VERSE 1:
I
[B] remember when rock was young
Me and
[D#m] Suzy had so much fun
Holdin'
[E] hands and skimmin' stones
Had an
[F#] old gold Chevy and a place of my own
VERSE 2:
But the
[B] biggest kick I ever got
Was doin' a
[D#m] thing called Crocodile Rock
While the
[E] other kids were rockin' round the clock
We were
[F#] hoppin' and boppin to the Crocodile Rock, well
CHORUS:
[G#m] Crocodile Rockin' is somethin' shockin'
When your
[C#] feet just can't keep still
[F#] Never knew me a better time
And I
[B] 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 ^
[Esus4]^
[E] sight
BRIDGE:
[B] La-a-a, la-la-la-la
[G#m] la
La-la-la-la
[E] la, La-la-la-la
[F#] la
VERSE 3:
But the
[B] years went by and rock just died
[D#m] Suzy went and left us for some foreign guy
[E] Long nights cryin' by the record machine
[F#] Dreamin' of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
VERSE 4:
But they'll
[B] never kill the thrills we got
Burnin'
[D#m] up to the Crocodile Rock
Learnin'
[E] fast as the weeks went past
We really
[F#] thought the Crocodile rock would last, well
