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

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


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

C#m   E       A    F#sus2
 All, Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,
C#m  E      A   F#sus2
    Tainted love.


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

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


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

C#m   E       A    F#sus2
 All, Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,
C#m  E      A   F#sus2
    Tainted love.


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


[Coda]
C#m  E       A    F#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,
C#m  E       A    F#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh.
C#m  E       A    F#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,
C#m  E       A    F#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh.

C#m  E              A      F#sus2
    Touch me, baby, tainted love,
C#m  E              A      F#sus2
    Touch me, baby, tainted love.
 
C#m  E       A    F#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,
C#m  E       A    F#sus2
     Tainted love, oh, oh, oh.
