Chorus: 
F     Bb      F    F     Bb      F 
Leee..ah, Le..ah   Leee..ah, Le..ah.  
       C7  
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)
