Intro:

Em G C G (x2)

Verse 1:

Some-[Em]times, [G]I [C]feel, I've [G]got to;
[Em] [G]Run a-[C]way, I've [G]got to;
[Em] [G]Get A-[C]way,
[G] [Em] [G] [C] [G]
The [Em]love [G]we [C]share,[G] seems to,
[Em] [G]Go no-[C]where.
[G] And I've [Em]lost [G]my [C]light,[G]
For I [Em]toss and turn; I can't [G]sleep at night.

Chorus 1:

[E] Once I ran to you,[G] now I run from you,
[C] This tainted love you've given,
I [Am]give you all a boy could give you.
[A] Take my tears and that's not nearly...
[Em] All,[G] Tainted [C]love, [G]oh, oh, oh,
[Em] [G]Tainted [C]love.[G]

Verse 2:

[Em] Now [G]I [C]know, I've [G]got to;
[Em] [G]Run a-[C]way, I've [G]got to;
[Em] [G]Get A-[C]way.
You [G]don't [Em]really want any [G]more from me.

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

Chorus 2:

[E] Once I ran to you,[G] now I run from you,
[C] This tainted love you've given,
I [Am]give you all a boy could give you.
[A] Take my tears and that's not nearly...
[Em] All,[G] Tainted [C]love, [G]oh, oh, oh,
[Em] [G]Tainted [C]love.[G]

Verse 3:

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

Coda:

[Em] [G] Tainted [C]love, [G]oh, oh, oh,
[Em] [G] Tainted [C]love, [G]oh, oh, oh.
[Em] [G] Tainted [C]love, [G]oh, oh, oh,
[Em] [G] Tainted [C]love, [G]oh, oh, oh.

[Em] [G]Touch me, baby, [C]tainted [G]love,
[Em] [G]Touch me, baby, [C]tainted [G]love.

[Em] [G] Tainted [C]love, [G]oh, oh, oh,
[Em] [G] Tainted [C]love, [G]oh, oh, oh.
