INTRO: Bb C Bb C 
 
                       Bb(9) 
I am a lineman for the county, 
F/A                      Gm 
    And I drive the main road, 
Dm7              Am7      G          D      
Searchin' in the sun for another overload. 
                          C 
I hear you singing in the wires, 
                           G     Gm 
I can hear you through the whine, 
                 D       A7sus                 Bb   C Bb C  
And the Witchita Lineman       is still on the line. 
 

                      Bb(9) 
I know I need a small vacation, 
F/A                        Gm 
    But it don't look like rain, 
    Dm7              Am7 
And if it snows that stretch down south 
      G              D 
Won't ever stand the strain. 
                              C 
And I need you more than want you, 
                       G    Gm 
And I want you for all time. 
                         A7sus                 Bb   C Bb C 
And the Witchita Lineman       is still on the line.
