[G] I remember when rock was young, [Bm] me and Suzy had so much fun, [C] holding hands and skimming
stones.
[D] Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own, [G] but the biggest pick I ever got
[Bm] was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock, while [C] the other kids were rocking around the
cloud.
We [D] were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock, [Em] well, try rocking and stop
and shout, but [A] when you feel you just can't keep still.
[D] I never knew me a better time,
and [G] I guess I never will.

[G] but we'll never kill the frills we got.
[Bm] Learning up the Crocodile Rock, [C] learning fast as the
weeks went past.
We [D] really thought the Crocodile Rock would last, [E] well, try rocking and stop
and shout, but [A] when you feel you just can't keep still.
