          Em
There be times when my crimes
      C                D
will seem almost unforgivable
       Em
I give in to sin
             C                      D
because you have to make this life liveable
              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
              G
I will give to you
again and again
C    D          Em
and will you return it

There'll be days when I'll stray
I may appear to be constantly out of reach
I give in to sin
Because I like to practice what I preach
I'm not trying to say I'll have it all my way
I'm always willing to learn when you've got something to teach
Oh, and I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile

Em
Pain will you return it
Em            C         Am
I'll say it again - pain
Em
Pain will you return it
Em               C  Am
I won't say it again

Pain, will you return it?
I'll say it again: pain
Pain, will you return it?
I won't say it again

Chorus:
Strangelove, strange highs and strange lows
Strangelove, that's how my love goes
Strangelove, will you give it to me?
Strangelove, strange highs and strange lows
Strangelove, that's how my love goes
Strangelove, will you give it to me?
Strangelove, strange highs and strange lows
Strangelove, that's how my love goes
Strangelove, will you give it to me?

I give in
Again and again
I give in
Will you give it to me?
I give in
I'll say it again
I give in
I give in
Again and again
I give in
That's how my love goes
I give in
I'll say it again
I give in
