[Verse 1]
          Em             Em
There be times when my crimes

        C             D
will seem almost unforgivable

        Em    Em
I give in to sin

             C                      D
because you have to make this life liveable

              Em                             Em
But when you think I've had enough from your sea of love

     C                        D
I'll take more than another river full

        Em           D        Am
Yes and I'll make it all worthwhile

C              D
I'll make your heart smile
[Chorus]
Em          Am                  D
Strangelove strange highs and strange lows

Em          Am            D     
Strangelove that's how my love goes

Em
  Strangelove

Am         D          Em
  will you give it to me

                    Am
  will you take the pain

         D       G
  I will give to you

     C         D
  again and again

            Em + intro
  and will you return it

   Em                        Em

[Verse 2]
             Em
There'll be days

           Em
When I'll stray

      C
I may appear to be

         D
Constantly out of reach

        Em
I give in

   Em
to sin

           C                       D
Because I like to practice what I preach

        Em
I'm not trying to say

              Em
I'll have it all my way

            C
I'm always willing to learn

                 D
When you've got something to teach

    Em            D        Am
And I'll make it all worthwhile

C               D
I'll make your heart smile

Em
Pain will you return it

Em                C         A
  I'll say it again - pain

Em
Pain will you return it

Em                C         A
  I'll say it again - pain

Em
Pain will you return it

Em                C         A
  I'll say it again - pain

Em
Pain will you return it

Em                 C       A
I won't say it again
