Porter Wagoner – Committed To Parkview chords

Committed To Parkview


          A                            EThere's a man across the hall who sits staring at the floor
                                           Aand he thinks he's Hank Williams, hear him singing through the door.
          D                     AThere's a girl in 202 who stops by to visit me
        B                             Eand she talks about her songs and the star that she should be.
          A                                DThere's a lot of real fine talent, staying in or passing through
        A         D   A                  D             Aand for one thing or another, they're committed to Parkview.

A                            EThere's a girl in 207 coming down on Thorazine
                                       Aand a superstars ex-drummer, trying to kick Benzedrine.
          D                                 AThere's a real fine country singer, who has tried and tried and tried.
          B                                EThey just bought him in this morning, an attempted suicide.
          A                                    DThere are those that never made it, those that did and now are through.
     A             D        A                 D             ASome came of their own good choosing, some committed to Parkview.

          A                              EThere's a girl who cries above me, loud enough to wake the dead.
                                            AThey don't know what she has taken that has scrambled up her head.
          D                                AThere's a boy just down below me who's the son of some well known.
       B                                  EHe was brought in by his mother cause his daddy's always gone.  
          A                               DThere's a bum from down on Broadway and a few quite well to do's.
         A         D        A               D             AWho have withdrawn from the rat-race and committed to Parkview.

A                               EThey wake me 'bout 6.30, just before the morning meal.
                                             AWhile they're taking my blood pressure, they ask us how we feel.
      D                                    AAnd I always say fantastic but there ain't nothing wrong with me.
          B                          EThen they give me my injection and I go right back to sleep.
       A                             DAnd my days are kind of foggy and my nights are dreamy too.
            A      D         A              D             ABut they're taking good care of me while committed to Parkview.


Enjoy!
