Elton John’s 1972 album, Don’t Shoot Me I’m Only The Piano Player included his retro nod to the 1950s, Crocodile Rock. Originally driven by piano and synth, the arrangement adapts the infectious rhythm, catchy chord progressions, and melodic hooks for acoustic guitar, making it a fun and lively addition to any setlist.

We start with The Campfire Version, great for beginners, with a basic strumming pattern and easy chords in the key of G. That is followed with sections on embellishing each part – The Intro, The Verse, The Chorus, and even The 50s Lick, originally done on electric guitar way up the neck.

There are some complex syncopations that will prove challenging to intermediate students but will be a lot of fun to tackle. This lesson is a great way to build rhythmic confidence and have fun with one of Elton’s most playful and crowd-pleasing tunes. Crocodile Rock brings nostalgic joy to any acoustic performance.
