Jquery - How to get the input value from a label

Question

If I have a bunch of label/selects like:

<label for="blah" class="myClass">
<select id="blah" multiple="multiple" size="5">

How would I get the value of the selected item based off the label?

So far I have..

    $('label[class="myClass"]').each(function(){
        var labelTxt = $(this).text();
        var labelForTxt = $(this).attr('for');
        var inputVal = $('#'+labelForTxt).val();
    });

but inputVal isn't the value I expect to see. Instead I get either null/undefined. Am I missing something?

Thanks!
