[E] A pretty good chance, I'd say.
That was all about being miserable as [G] a child.
This next one is a song about all the rock and roll records of the 1960s,
and it's a song called Crocodile Rock.

[Gb] [G]

[D] [C]
[D]
[G] I remember when Rock was young
[Bm] Me and Susie had so much fun
[C] Holding hands and skimming stones
[D] I had an old Ford Chevy and a place of my own
But [G] the biggest kick I ever got
Was [Bm] on a thing called the Crocodile Rock
[C] While the other kids were rockin' round the clock
We [D] were hoppin' and boppin' to the Crocodile Rock
Oh, [Em] well, [Gb] Crocodile Rockin'
It's so shocking [A] when your feet just hang still
[D] I never knew me a better time
[G] But I guess I never will
[E] I'm a lolly momma of Smiley Nights
[A]
When Susie wore her dress this tight
And [D] when I rockin' was her eye-heart [C] on the side
[G]
[Em]
[C] But [D]
[G] the years went by and the rock just died
[Bm]
Susie went and left me for some foreign [C] guy
Born to ice crime by the rigging machine
[D]
Dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
[G] But they never killed the kids we got
[Bm] Runnin' up to the Crocodile Rock
[C] Runnin' fast as the weeks went by
You [D] really thought the Crocodile Rock would last
[Em] Well, Crocodile Rockin'
It's so shocking [A] when your feet just hang still
[D] I never knew me a better time
But [G] I guess I never will
[E]
I'm a lolly momma of Smiley Nights
[A] When Susie wore her dress this tight

I [C]
[D]
remember [G]
