A            D
Phyllis, go home
A                        D
I think you might be drunk
A                F#m              D
What you called your knack for genius
Bm                E
Was prob'ly only luck

A              D
Phyllis, don't cry
A                     D
When you think of the snow
A             F#m
Picture burly lumberjacks
Bm            E
Dyin' in the cold


[Chorus]
A             D
He's never comin' back
A                 D
Fast times in Minnesota
A               F#m        
You're stuck in North Dakota
Bm             E
Drivin' fifty-five


[Verse 2]
A              D
Phyllis, don't frown
A                D
This is not the end
A             F#m
Of a life you have despised
D            Bm        E
You've got a few years yet

A              D
Phyllis, look up
A             D
Try not to forget
A                F#m
The best part of gettin' older:
D      Bm      E
Livin' with regret


[Chorus]
A             D
He's never comin' back
A                 D
Fast times in Minnesota
A               F#m        
You're stuck in North Dakota
Bm             E
Drivin' fifty-five

A             D
He's never comin' back
A             D
Fast times in Minnesota
A             D
Just east of South Dakota
A             D
Uff-dahs and, yeah, you betchas

A             D
Hot dish and all the lefse
A             D
Drunk drivin' on Toyotas
A             D
Bob Dylan, great to know ya
A             D
White people paranoia

A             D
That time and where I met ya
A             D
I hope I didn't bore ya
A             D
Drivin' fifty-five
A             D
Drivin' fifty-five
F#m           E     A
Drivin' fifty-five
