[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_whitest_boy_alive/1517_crd.html ]
F#m7         E         Dmaj7
Hey, you, we just got started,
          C#m7     Bm
You can't end this now.
F#m7         E         Dmaj7
Hey, you, we just got started,
          C#m7     Bm
You can't end this now.

You've payed your dues, you're free,
            C#m7       Bm
Of what are you afraid?

You've payed your dues, you're free,
            C#m7       Bm

Chorus 1:

Dmaj7*       D6(add2)    Dmaj7*          D6(add2)       F#m7*
Taking on responsibility knowing it will way you down... 
Dmaj7*       D6(add2)    Dmaj7*         D6(add2)
Freedom is a possibility only if you're able to say no.

Verse 2: (same as verse 1)

People in northern Europe since medieval times,
We find it hard to deal with when our dreams come true.
As it happens in success in the world that afflicts the mount,
And if you feel up, somebody somewhere else feels down.

Chorus (2x)
