Here I go, 
         Bb          F            C7 
From the hut, to the boat, to the sea, 
    E   F 
for Le..ah. 

#1.
F               F#            F 
I've got to go, diving in the bay. 
F                            F#                 F 
Got to get a lot of oysters, find some pearls today. 
   Bb                         F      Db7 C7   F 
To make a pretty necklace for Leah.  Le..ee...ah. 

CHORUS:

#2.
F                       F#                  F 
I've got to go deep and find the ones, just right. 
F                     F#             F 
I'll bet my Leah will be surprised tonight. 
     Bb                               F             Db7 C7  F 
I'll place the pearls around the only girl for me.  Le..ee..ah. 

CHORUS:

#3.
F                        F#           F 
But something's wrong, I cannot move around. 
F                      F#         F
My leg is caught, it's pulling me down. 
         Bb                                    F 
But I'll keep my hands shut tight, for if they find me, 
                 Db7        C7  F 
They'll find the pearls for Le..ah. 

#4.
F                  F#           F 
And now it's over, I'm awake at last. 
F                  F#                F 
All heartaches and memories from the past. 
       Bb                          F          Db7 C7  F 
It was just another dream about my lost love. Le..ee..ah. 
F    Bb    F    F   Bb    F
Le...ah, Leah.  Le..ah, Leah. 
       C7          Bb           F            
Here I go, back to sleep and my dreams. 
         C7      E   F   E   F   E   F 
And I'll be with Le..ah, Le..ah, Le..aaaaah. (Fade)
