[Intro]
 
 D   D   Bm   Bm   G   G   A   A   
 
 
 [Verse 1]
 
      D                                    F#m
 I remember when rock was young,    me and Susie had so much fun
         G                                A
 Holding hands and skimmin' stones  had a old gold Chevy & a place of my own
         D                                      F#m
 But the biggest kick I ever got    was doin' a thing called the Crocodile Rock
           G                                                A
 While the other kids were rockin' 'round the clock we were hoppin' and 
 boppin' to the Crocodile Rock, well
 
 
 [Chorus]
 
 Bm                                                E7
 Crocodile Rockin' is something shockin' when your feet just can't keep still
 A7                                 D
 I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will.
 B                                        E7
 Oh, Lawdy mamma those Friday nights when Susie wore her dresses tight and
 A7                               G     D  G  D
 the Crocodile Rockin' was out of sight. 
 
 
 [Interlude]
 
 D   D   Bm   Bm   G   G   A   A     
 
 
 [Verse 2]
 
         D                                 F#m
 But the years went by and rock just died, Susie went and left me for some foreign guy,
 G                                        A
 Long nights cryin' by the record machine dreamin' of my Chevy & my old blue jeans but they'll
 D                                        F#m
 Never kill the thrills we got    burnin' up to the Crocodile Rock,
          G                                        A
 Learning fast as the weeks went past, we really thought the Crocodile Rock would last, well
