Intro: [Fmaj7] [Bbmaj7] [Fmaj7] [Gm7]......

I am a lineman for the [Bbmaj7] county [Fmaj7]

And I drive the main [Gm7] road

[Dm7] Searchin' in the [Am/C] sun for a[G]nother over[D]load [Dsus4] [D] I hear you singing in the [Am/C] wires

I can hear you through the [G] whine [Gm]

And the Wichita [D] Lineman [A7sus4]

Is still on the [Bbmaj7] line [Am7] [Bbmaj7] [Gm7]......

I know I need a small [Bbmaj7] vacation [Fmaj7]

But it don't look like [Gm7] rain

And [Dm7] if it snows that [Am/C] stretch down south Won't [G] ever stand the [D] strain [Dsus4] [D]

And I need you more than [Am/C] want you

And I want you for all [G] time [Gm]

And the Wichita [D] Lineman [A7sus4]

Is still on the [Bbmaj7] line [Am7] [Bbmaj7] [Gm7]......
