[Verse]
E C G D E C G D
Don't waste your breath, don't waste my time
E C G D E C G D
If I hear one more excuse I'll lose my mind

Do you feel like you're gonna fall?

Specific chord fingerings:
Gsus4 320013
Gsus2 3x0233
(Notes)
Get the rhythm of the E C G D down -- use the original recording for the strumming/arpeggiating pattern.
Once you've got that, it's a matter of working within the cadence of the words. As noted above, the
progression goes over two measures with chord changes hitting on beats 1 and 3 over the two measures.
At the end of the bridge, do the G chords with one each beat kind of like when you the "Dsus4 thing",
except for in G this time. Again, listen to the recording to get the rhythm down.
