Porter Wagoner - Committed to Parkview

      
 
           A                            E                   
 There's a man across the hall who sits staring at the floor
                                            A                        
 and he thinks he's Hank Williams, hear him singing through the door.
           D                     A             
 There's a girl in 202 who stops by to visit me
         B                             E                       
 and she talks about her songs and the star that she should be.
           A                                D                    
 There's a lot of real fine talent, staying in or passing through
         A         D   A                  D             A    
 and for one thing or another, they're committed to Parkview.
 
 A                            E                
 There's a girl in 207 coming down on Thorazine
                                        A               
 and a superstars ex-drummer, trying to kick Benzedrine.
           D                                 A                         
 There's a real fine country singer, who has tried and tried and tried.
           B                                E               
 They just bought him in this morning, an attempted suicide.
           A                                    D                       
 There are those that never made it, those that did and now are through.
      A             D        A                 D             A    
 Some came of their own good choosing, some committed to Parkview.
 
           A                              E                      
 There's a girl who cries above me, loud enough to wake the dead.
                                             A                     
 They don't know what she has taken that has scrambled up her head.
           D                                A                      
 There's a boy just down below me who's the son of some well known.
        B                                  E                   
 He was brought in by his mother cause his daddy's always gone.
           A                               D                      
 There's a bum from down on Broadway and a few quite well to do's.
          A         D        A               D             A    
 Who have withdrawn from the rat-race and committed to Parkview.
 
 A                               E                     
 They wake me 'bout 6.30, just before the morning meal.
                                              A                  
 While they're taking my blood pressure, they ask us how we feel.
       D                                    A                     
 And I always say fantastic but there ain't nothing wrong with me.
           B                          E                      
 Then they give me my injection and I go right back to sleep.
        A                             D                     
 And my days are kind of foggy and my nights are dreamy too.
             A      D         A              D             A    
 But they're taking good care of me while committed to Parkview.
 
 Enjoy!
