[Intro]
G#m  B  E  B


[Verse 1]
     G#m     B E         C#sus2
Some-times, I feel, I've got to;
G#m B    E        C#sus2
   Run a-way, I've got to;
G#m B    E
   Get A-way,
         C#sus2       G#m       B     E       C#sus2
From the pain you drive in-to the heart of me.

    G#m   B E    C#sus2
The love we share, seems to,
G#m  B    E
    Go no-where.
B        G#m   B E   C#sus2
 And I've lost my light,
      G#m                     B
For I toss and turn; I can't sleep at night.


[Chorus]
G#                  B
 Once I ran to you, now I run from you,
E
 This tainted love you've given,
  C#m
I give you all a boy could give you.
C#sus2
 Take my tears and that's not nearly...

G#m   B       E    C#sus2
 All, Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,
G#m  B      E   C#sus2
    Tainted love.


[Verse 2]
G#m   B E         C#sus2
 Now I know, I've got to;
G#m B    E        C#sus2
   Run a-way, I've got to;
G#m B    E
   Get A-way.
    C#sus2     G#m              B
You don't really want any more from me.

   G#m   B     E
To make things right,
    C#sus2         G#m     B       E
You need some-one to hold you tight.
C#sus2        G#m         B    E
 And you think love is to pray,
C#sus2        G#m             B
 But I'm sorry, I don't pray that way.


[Chorus]
G#                  B
 Once I ran to you, now I run from you,
E
 This tainted love you've given,
  C#m
I give you all a boy could give you.
C#sus2
 Take my tears and that's not nearly...

G#m   B       E    C#sus2
 All, Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,
G#m  B      E   C#sus2
    Tainted love.


[Verse 3]
      G#m    B  E
Don't touch me, please,
  C#sus2       G#m        B      E
I can not stand the way you tease.
  G#m                   B      E
I love you, though you hurt me so,
C#sus2        G#m               B
 Now I'm going to pack my things and go.


[Coda]
G#m  B       E    C#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,
G#m  B       E    C#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh.
G#m  B       E    C#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,
G#m  B       E    C#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh.

G#m  B              E      C#sus2
    Touch me, baby, tainted love,
G#m  B              E      C#sus2
    Touch me, baby, tainted love.
 
G#m  B       E    C#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,
G#m  B       E    C#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh.
