Soft Cell, Tainted Love (1981)
 Key: :[G#m] (w: Ed Cobb) (Gloria Jones, 1964, Key: G#m)
INTRO: [G#5] [B5] [E5] [B5]^[C#5] : [x2]

VERSE 1:
Some-[*]-times I feel I've got to [*] run away, I've got to [*] get away
From the [G#m] pain you drive into the [B5] heart of me
The [*] love we share seems to [*] go nowhere, and I've [*] lost my light
For I [G#m] toss and turn I can't [B5] sleep at night

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

VERSE 2:
[*] Now I know I've got to [*] run away, I've got to [*] get away
You don't [G#m] really want any-[B5]-more from me
To [*] make things right, you need some-[*]-one to hold you tight
And you [*] think love is to pray, but I'm [G#] sorry I don't [B5] pray that way

REPEAT CHORUS:

OUTRO:
Don't [*] touch me please, I cannot [*] stand the way you tease
I [*] love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm [*] going to pack my things and go
[*] Tainted love, oh oh oh; [*] Tainted love, oh oh oh
[*] Tainted love, oh oh oh; [*] Tainted love, oh oh oh
[*] Touch me baby, tainted love; [*] Touch me baby, tainted love
[*] Tainted love, oh oh oh; [*] Tainted love, oh oh oh; [*] Tainted love

ADDITIONAL INFO:

[*] = [G#5] [B5] [E5] [B5]^[C#5] (i.e. as intro)
