Words: Jake Thackray, adapted from "Je Rejoindrai Ma Belle" by Georges Brassens Music: Georges Brassens Click here to download guitar tab When love is in my bones I'll go by stepping stones And over shoals of mackerel I'll skip along to Isobel. When love is in my bones I'll go by stepping stones, I'll skip across on tippy-toe. A tempest passing by Will leave you high and dry by Overflowing all your stepping stones; A tempest passing by Will leave you high and dry. Go kiss your stepping stones goodbye. If hurricanoes blow To flood my stepping stones I'll take a little cockleshell And bob across to Isobel. If hurricanoes blow To flood my stepping stones I'll take a jollyboat and row. A pirate passing by Will leave you high and dry by Scuppering your pretty cockleshell; A pirate passing by Will leave you high and dry. Go kiss your jollyboat goodbye. In spite of scupperings My love will grow me wings And like a stormy petrel I'll skim along to Isobel. In spite of scupperings My love will grow me wings, And as I go I'll tremulously sing. The hunter's narrow eye Will shoot you from the sky, Tumble, tumble, tattered petrel; The hunter's wicked eye Will pick you from the sky. Go kiss your love affair goodbye. If my descending bones Go down to Davy Jones, Ah! Will you tell my Isobel How much I loved her as I fell, And ask her to be true And give it a day or two Before she kisses someone new.
