The high E string is not used as far as I can tell. There may be a few little variations here or there,
but this is basically it. Great song!

[Chorus]
I don't know where I've been goin' wrong

[Chorus]
There are times I don't care for nothin'
Got the look of a storm in my eyes
As the world turns around I am runnin'
Runnin' away almost every night

[Bridge]
I never needed trust
Was never patient enough
How quick I can fall through the ceilin'
I never needed trust
Was never patient enough
I wanted to find love and I knew where the city was
