Most of the song is played around the 9th fret with some damping of treble strings during the verse. The chorus uses all six strings to achieve a full sound.

    you play it safe           you lose the game
    you keep your secrets
    I wanna fly on the high trapeze
    I get dizzy off my knees
    Hope there's a girl waiting to fly with me
    Cause I know that shelve's no place for me to be
