day by chance my Dorraine passed my way

We sat down on the dock and with
Eb
our hearts and fingers locked
Bb
We laughed and talked and joked about

when our names are the same
Bb
And joking I said honey are you
Eb
marrying me for money
Bb
And it took just one quick look to tell
F
Bb
it hurt my dear Dorraine
Verse 4
Bb
She jumped and stood above me and
Eb
she cried why you don't love me
Bb
I'm rowing home across the lake

she rowed fast from the shore

And the clouds brought by a wind began

to rain on Ponchartrain

I lost sight of my Dorraine

As panic gripped my heart I drew

the oars and made my start

To look for her on raging waters

and the rain on Ponchartrain
Verse 7
Bb
At darkness I still called but no
Eb
one heard my cries at all
Bb
And when the daybreak came then others

helped me look for my Dorraine

But there was not a thing afloat

except the oars from her rowboat

For all was lost upon the choppy waves

an d rain on Ponchartrain

Verse 8
Now I come day after day to where
Eb
my sweetheart rowed away
Bb
And I gaze across the water

of the rainy Ponchartrain

Just one thing and nothing more
Eb
ever floated back to shore
Bb
F
Was this flower I hold it is the one I pinned on
Eb

Dorraine, my Dorraine, my
Bb
dark haired little angel

My belle of Ponchartrain
