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 

Gm Bb Am  Bb F Am  Dm Am G D

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
