CHORUS:
E     A       E    E     A       E
Leee..ah, Le..ah   Leee..ah, Le..ah. 
       B
Here I go, 
         A                        B
From the hut, to the boat, to the sea, 
    E   
for Le..ah. 

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


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


#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, 
                 C#7        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          C#7 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)
