chore list?

Question

I live with two roommates and it has quickly turned into a problem (mostly for one roommate) not cleaning. We've decided to make a chore list.
I'm looking for a basic outline I can find online where i can later add specifics for our needs.
Some kind of general outline. Anything is helpful, thanks
