Maybe it will be something you do right away, or it might be an idea that you save for the perfect time. Either way, you'll usually want to write your chorus around your song title first.
Use that four chord progression for the verse, change to a different chord in the pre-chorus (like a 2 minor, or even just the 5 chord), and then return to that same progression for the chorus. Repeat that progression in the next verse. That's a good basic layer. 3. Keep it simple.
