1. I am a lineman for the county         and I drive the main road,

     Am                   Em          D               A

    searchin' in the sun for another overload.

                                         Em                                                   D

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

Dm                         A              Em                      F        G   F   G

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

         Am                       Em                    D                                     A

    and if it snows that stretch down south     won't ever stand the strain.

                                           Em                                              D

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

Dm                         A              Em                       F         G   F   G
