Aracane question about Elton John's early influences

Is it possible that Elton John was influenced a lot by the song "Cat Black (The Wizard's Hat)" on Tyrannosaurus Rex's Unicorn album? It's always made me think of him but maybe it's just because it happens to have the same chord progression as "Crocodile Rock."

Elton John was a big T Rex fan - saw some live T Rex thing from a Brit tv show, where Elton was a special guest on keyboards - so yeah, this seems possible.
