“Wichita Lineman”
Glen Campbell
Intro: Am7 – Gm7 (x2)
Gm Bb7 Dm7 Gm7
I am a lineman for the county, and I drive the main road,
Dm Am G D
Searchin’ in the sun for another overload.
D C G
I hear you singin’ in the wire. I can hear you through the whine,
Gm D C Bb7 – Am7 – Bb7 – Gm7
And the Wichita lineman is still on the line…
I know I need a small vacation, but it don’t look like rain.
And if it snows, that stretch down south won’t ever stand the strain.
And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all time,
Gm D C Bb7 – Gm7 – Bb7 – Gm7
And the Wichita lineman is still on the line.
Instrumental: Bb7 C Gm7 Dm – Am – G D
And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all time.
And the Wichita lineman is still on the line.
Outro: Bb7 C Gm7 Am7 (x2)
