Gm7                    Bbmaj7 Am7                  Gm7
I am a lineman for the county and I drive the main road
                                           riff 1
Dm7              Am7     G      Gsus4  D   D----0---0
searchin' in the sun for another overload. A--h2--h2  then D chord
                                           E--

                          Cadd9                           G
I hear you singing in the wires,  I can hear you in the whine

Gm              D        Am7             Bb   Am7  Bb
And the Wichita Lineman  is still on the line.

Gm7                   Bbmaj7    Am7                    Gm7
I know I need a small vacation, but it don't look like rain.

    Dm7              Am7                       G              D  riff 1
And if it snows that stretch down south won't ever stand the strain.

                         Am7                              G
And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all time.

Gm              D      Am7                Bb
And the Wichita Lineman  is still on the line.
