Tainted Love Guitar Lesson – Soft Cell

In this Tainted Love guitar lesson video, I will show you an easy yet fun way to play this massive 80's hit by Soft Cell on the guitar.

The tuning is standard tuning, E A D G B E.

There are just two chord progressions you will need to learn for this one. If you can play basic major and minor barre chords, you will have no problem whatsoever playing this arrangement.

For the main riff, I have added some octaves to more closely match the keyboard melody.

I hope you guys enjoy learning this one. Even though it wasn't originally recorded on the guitar, I think once you start playing the opening riff of this arrangement, everyone will recognize it immediately. 🙂

Have fun! Carl...
