To be honest, I think I rather invented the F#/A#, so feel free to leave it out, but I think it's pretty.
Use power chords in the Chorus.
You might also just use F# instead of the B5/F# in the Pre-Chorus & Solo.

G#5 F#5 E5 B5 Talk, talking a lot, but it's still talk, gotta love how it's somehow all on me G#5 F#5 E5 B5 All the petty scenes and all the pretty things, say whatever you want 'Cause I can laugh it off
