Here is the first verse.  The rest is just like it but with different words.  
Where it says stop, you could also just strum once of that chord.

Capo 1

D (xx0232@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D

DIsabel (xx0232@1)met an enormous bear,

DIsabel, (xx0232@1)Isabel, she didnt care;

D (xx0232@1)                         --stop
The bear was hungry, the bear was ravenous,

D (xx0232@1)                        --stop
The bears big mouth was cruel and cavernous.

DThe (xx0232@1)bear said, Isabel, glad to meet you,

DHow (xx0232@1)do, Isabel, now Ill eat you

AIsabel, (x02220@1)Isabel, she didnt worry.

EmIsabel (022000@1)didnt scream or scurry.

AWashed (x02220@1)her hands and she straightened her hair up,

Em (022000@1)               D (xx0232@1)      AThen (x02220@1)Isabel ate the bear up.

Once in a night black as pitch
Isabel met a wicked old witch.
Witchs face was cross and wrinkled,
Witchs gums with teeth were sprinkled.
Ho, ho, Isabel the old witch crowed,
Ill turn you into an ugly toad!
Isabel, Isabel, didnt worry,
Isabel didnt scream or scurry,
Showed no rage and she showed no rancor,
Turned the witch into milk and drank her.

Isabel met a hideous giant
Isabel so self-reliant.
The giant was hairy, the giant was horrid,
One eye there in the middle of his forhead.
Good morning, Isabel, the giant said,
Ill grind your bones to make my bread.
Isabel, Isabel, she didnt worry,
Isabel didnt scream or scurry.
Nibbled on his zwieback that she fed off,
And when it was gone, she cut the giant's head off.

DIsabel (xx0232@1)met a troublesome doctor,

DPunched (xx0232@1)and poked and really shocked her.

DThe (xx0232@1)doctors talk was of coughs and chills

DAnd (xx0232@1)the doctors satchel bulged with pills.

DThe (xx0232@1)doctor said whoa Isabel,

DSwallow (xx0232@1)this, gonna make you well.

AIsabel, (x02220@1)Isabel, didnt hurry,

EmIsabel (022000@1)didnt scream or scurry.

ATook (x02220@1)those pills from the pill concocter,

EmThen (022000@1)Isabel cured the doctor.
