[F] [D]
[F] [Dm] I am a lineman [F] for the county, [E] [Em] and I drive [G] the main [F] road,
[Am] Searching in the [Em] sun [D] for another [A] overload.
I hear you singing in [G] the wires, I can hear you through [D] the wine,
[Dm] And the Wichita [A] lineman is [E] still on [F] the line.
[G] [F]
[A] I know I need a small [F] vacation,
[Em] but it don't look [Am] like rain,
And if it [Em] snows that stretch down [D] south won't ever stand the [A] strain.
And I need you [G] more than want you, and I want you [D] for all time,
[Dm] And the [A] Wichita lineman is still [F] on the line.
