snapped mouse chord out

hi guys
any electronically minded fellow be able to help me out?
I can solder perfectly well, so that isnt the issue..

i yanked my mouse a little too hard and ripped the wire right out of it, its become detached from the PCB inside..
the traces still look fine, and so do the pads.
but i dont know which wire goes where..

4 wires in a USB cable, i dont want to get them wrong and damage anything..

on my PCB, there are letters corresponding to each tab for each wire to connect to,

D C G V

which wire goes where?

cheers

Did you sort this yet? Googling comes up with

G - Black

C - Green

D - White

V - Red

If you don't mind me asking, can I ask just how you managed to yank it to rip the wire out?

Like, during a gaming session, or what?
