(this is also played in the verse, but I wrote down the chords; so you can decide what you wanna play :) )
Em5
I’m on the verge, preparing for the unknown
C5 D5
I’ve got my feet half way over the edge,
Em5
flirting with the ledge
Em5
I’m no good making any big moves,
C5 D5
even a small one can have big consequences
Em5
Finger on the trigger
Chorus:
