Intro: Am Bb  Am Gm  
   
       Bb              Am     Bb  
I am a lineman for the county,   
      F              Am               
and I drive the main road;   
Dm               Am       G          D  
searchin' in the sun for another overload   
   
D                         C    Am  
I hear you singin' in the wire,   
                           G  
I can hear you through the whine   
Gm              D      Am                Bb C Bb C  
And the Wichita Lineman, is still on the line   
   
  Gm     Bb             Am     Bb  
I know I need a small vacation,   
       F               Am  
but it don't look like rain   
    Dm               Am  
And if it snows that stretch down south   
      G              D  
won't ever stand the strain   
   
D                        C        Am  
And I need you more than want you,   
                       G  
and I want you for all time   
Gm              D      Am                Bb C Bb C  
And the Wichita Lineman, is still on the line

D                        C        Am  
And I need you more than want you,   
                       G  
and I want you for all time   
Gm              D      Am                Bb C Bb C  
And the Wichita Lineman, is still on the line
