            [Intro]
C  Em  F  G

[Verse 1]
    C                                  Em
I remember when rock was young, me and Susie had so much fun
        F
Holdin' hands and skimmin stones,
       G
had an old gold Chevy and a place of our own
        C
But the biggest kick I ever got,
            Em
was doin' a thing called the crocodile rock
          F
While the other kids were rockin' round the clock,
        G
we were hoppin' an boppin' to the crocodile rock


[Chorus]
      Am
Well,     crocodile rockin' is somethin' shockin,
          D7
when your feet just can't keep still.
G7                                      C
   I never knew me a better time, and I guess I never will.
A
Oh lawdy mama, those Friday nights,
     D7
when Susie wore her dresses tight,
G7                                  C
   and the crocodile rockin' was out of sight.


[Post-Chorus]
C                   Em
Laa, la, la la, la, laa
                F                    G
la, la, la, la, laa  la, la, la, la, laa


[Verse 2]
        C
But the years went by and the rock just died.
Em
Susie went and left us for a foreign guy.
F
Long nights crying by the record machine,
G
dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans.
            C
But they'll never kill the thrills we got,
        Em
burning up to the crocodile rock.
         F
Learning fast as the weeks went past,
          G
we really thought the crocodile rock would last.


[Chorus]
      Am
Well,     crocodile rockin' is somethin' shockin,
          D7
when your feet just can't keep still.
G7                                      C
   I never knew me a better time, and I guess I never will.
A
Oh lawdy mama, those Friday nights,
     D7
when Susie wore her dresses tight,
G7                                  C
   and the crocodile rockin' was out of sight.


[Post-Chorus]
C                   Em
Laa, la, la la, la, laa
                F                    G
la, la, la, la, laa  la, la, la, la, laa
