[Intro]
 
 E   E   C#m   C#m   A   A   B   B   
 
 
 [Verse 1]
 
      E                                    G#m
 I remember when rock was young,    me and Susie had so much fun
         A                                B
 Holding hands and skimmin' stones  had a old gold Chevy & a place of my own
         E                                      G#m
 But the biggest kick I ever got    was doin' a thing called the Crocodile Rock
           A                                                B
 While the other kids were rockin' 'round the clock we were hoppin' and 
 boppin' to the Crocodile Rock, well
 
 
 [Chorus]
 
 C#m                                                F#7
 Crocodile Rockin' is something shockin' when your feet just can't keep still
 B7                                 E
 I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will.
 C#                                        F#7
 Oh, Lawdy mamma those Friday nights when Susie wore her dresses tight and
 B7                               A     E  A  E
 the Crocodile Rockin' was out of sight. 
 
 
 [Interlude]
 
 E   E   C#m   C#m   A   A   B   B     
 
 
 [Verse 2]
 
         E                                 G#m
 But the years went by and rock just died, Susie went and left me for some foreign guy,
 A                                        B
 Long nights cryin' by the record machine dreamin' of my Chevy & my old blue jeans but they'll
 E                                        G#m
 Never kill the thrills we got    burnin' up to the Crocodile Rock,
          A                                        B
 Learning fast as the weeks went past, we really thought the Crocodile Rock would last, well
 
 
 [Chorus]
