[Intro]G   G   Em   Em   C   C   D   D

[Verse 1]I remGember when rock was young,    me and BmSusie had so much fun
Holding Chands and skimmin' stones  had a Dold gold Chevy & a place of my own
But the Gbiggest kick I ever got    was doin' a Bmthing called the Crocodile Rock
While the Cother kids were rockin' 'round the clock we were Dhoppin' and
boppin' to the Crocodile Rock, well

[Chorus]EmCrocodile Rockin' is something shockin' when your A7feet just can't keep still
D7I never knew me a better time and IG guess I never will.
EOh, Lawdy mamma those Friday nights when A7Susie wore her dresses tight and
D7the Crocodile Rockin' was out of FsiCghFt.C  F  C 

[Interlude]G   G   Em   Em   C   C   D   D

[Verse 2]But the Gyears went by and rock just died, BmSusie went and left me for some foreign guy,
CLong nights cryin' by the record machine Ddreamin' of my Chevy & my old blue jeans but they'll
GNever kill the thrills we got    burnin' Bmup to the Crocodile Rock,
Learning Cfast as the weeks went past, we really thDought the Crocodile Rock would last, well

[Chorus]EmCrocodile Rockin' is something shockin' when your A7feet just can't keep still
D7I never knew me a better time and I Gguess I never will.
EOh, Lawdy mamma those Friday nights when A7Susie wore her dresses tight and

        F# on the Em and C chords
        G  on the D chord
