D                      C
I am a lineman for the county.
G                     D
 And I drive the main road.
Em               Bm
Searchin' in the sun,
     A          E
for another overload.

[Verse 2]
E                         D
I hear you singin' in the wire.
D                       A        Am
 I can hear you through the whine.
C                E
 And the Wichita lineman;
B                C                      D       C
 Is still on the line..(is still on the line..)

[Bridge]
D                       C
I know I need a small vacation.
G
 But it don't look like rain.
    Em                Bm
And if it snows, that stretch down south,
      A              E
won't ever stand the strain.

[Chorus]
                    D
And I need you more than want you.
                   A
And I want you for all time.
C                E
 And the Wichita lineman:
B                C                   D                         C
 is still on the line..(still on the line, on the line, on the line..)

[Chorus]
E                    D
 And I need you more than want you.
                   Am
And I want you for all time.
C                E
 And the Wichita lineman:
B5               C                   D                         C                         D
 Is still on the line..(still on the line, on the line, on the line, on the line, on the line)
                 C                   D                        C
Is still on the line..(still on the line, on the line, on the line, on the line)

[Outro]

C                          D            C
(on the line, still on the line, on the line, on the line)
D                C     D
 Is still on the line....
