Don't Shoot Me I'm Only The Piano Player (1973)

G/D C/E D7/F♯

G(C)  Em  C  D(G)  sautillant

    G
I remember when rock was young
       Bm
Me and Susie had so much fun
        C
Holding hands and skimmin' stones
      D
Had a old gold Chevy and a place of my own

But the biggest kick I ever got
Was doin' a thing called the Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were rockin' 'round the clock
We were hoppin' and boppin' to the Crocodile Rock, well

  Em        D  Em   D  Em        D  Em
  Crocodile Rockin' is something shockin'
            A7                                   w/ a a c c♯ e...
  When your feet just can't keep still
  D7
  I never knew me a better time
        G
  And I guess I never will

  E7                                             w/ ^eeee ^eeee
  Oh, Lawdy mamma those Friday nights
       A7 (r)                                    basse a b c c♯  x 2
  When Susie wore her dresses tight and
  D7
  The Crocodile Rockin' was out
     F/C C F/C C F/C C
  Of sight

G  Em  C  D  w/ tites voix

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

But they'll never kill the thrills we got
Burnin' up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning fast as the weeks went past
We really thought the Crocodile Rock would last, well
