Wichita Lineman

Wichita Lineman - Jimmy Webb

I am a lineman for the county and I drive the main road

searchin' in the sun for another overload.

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

And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line.

Am7 Bb (hit once and let ring)

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

And if it snows that sounthern load won't ever stand the strain.

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

And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line.

Am7 Bb Gm7 Bb C Bc C G

(I don't recall the last G being on the Glen Campbell recording,

but it makes for a nice closure).
