C D# G# D# F#
Sometimes I feel I've got to
C D# G# D# F#
Run away I've got to
C D# G# D# F#
Get away
C D# G# D# F# C D#
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
C D# G# D# F#
The love we share
C D# G# D# F#
Seems to go nowhere
C D# G# D# F#
And I've lost my light
C D# G# D# F# C D#
For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night


C
Once I ran to you (I ran)
D#
Now I'll run from you
G#
This tainted love you've given
F
I give you all a boy could give you
F
Take my tears and that's not nearly all

C D# G# D# F#.....
Oh...tainted love
Tainted love

Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
You don't really want IT any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
And you'LL think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way

(chorus...)

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, tainted love (x2)
Touch me baby, tainted love (x2)
Tainted love (x3)
