Tom: G

[Intro] G  C  D
        G  Em  C  D

[Primeira Parte]

     G
I remember when rock was young
        Bm
Me and Susie had so much fun
         C
Holding hands and skimmin´ stones
       D
Had an old gold Chevy

And a place of my own

         G
But the biggest kick I ever got
              Bm
Was doin' a thing called the Crocodile Rock
          C
While the other kids were rockin'

'Round the clock
         D
We were hoppin' and  boppin'

To the Crocodile Rock, well

[Refrão]

Em
   Crock Rockin' is something shockin'
           A7
When your feet just can't keep still
D7                               
   I never knew me a better time
        G
And I guess I never will
E
Oh, Lawdy mamma, those Friday nights
      A7
When Susie wore her dresses tight and
D7                                   C         
   The Crockdile Rockin' was out of sight

( G  Em  C  D )

[Segunda Parte]

         G
But the years went by and rock just died
 Bm
Susie went and left me for some  foreign guy
 C
Long nights cryin' by the record machine
  D
Dreamin' of my Chevy and my old blue jeans

             G
But they'll never kill the thrills we've got
        Bm
Burnin' up to the Crocodile Rock
          C
Learning fast till the weeks went past
            D/F#
We really thought the Crocodile Rock

Would last, well
