The lyrics are not available anywhere so I'm just listening real hard. I'll update it when they're released.
Brackets are around lyrics that I'm very unsure about.
Most of the song is this cool bass riff, but you can substitute chords:

And every time you get lost, get found

G Em C

And when you raise up that glass, drink it down
