Pearly Shells
Recorded Burl Ives
Written by John Kalapana-Leonpobar

C
Pearly Shells from the ocean 
               F                G7
Shining in the sun covering the shore 
       C                 F
When I see them my heart tells me that I love you 
          C       G7            C
More than all the little pearly shells 

          G7
For every grain of sand upon the beach 
     C
I’ve got a kiss for you 
             G7
And I've got more left over 
                   D7              G7
for each star that twinkles in the blue 

       C
Pearly Shells from the ocean
               F                G7
shining in the sun covering the shore 
       C                 F
When I see them my heart tells me that I love you 
          C       G7            C
More than all the little pearly shells 
 
          G7
For every grain of sand upon the beach 
  C
I got a kiss for you 
             G7
And I've got more left over 
                   D7              G7
for each star that twinkles in the blue 

       C
Pearly Shells from the ocean 
               F                G7
shining in the sun covering the shore 
       C                 F
When I see them my heart tells me that I love you 
          C       G7            C
More than all the little pearly shells 
          C       G7            C
More than all the little pearly shells
