[Verse]

     G     G9           C            Cm6
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses
            G          Em7
You've been out ridin' fences,
    A7        D7
for so long - now.
            G         G9
Oh you're a hard one.
            C               Cm
I know that you've got your reasons.
      G/D     B/D#   Em7
These things that are pleasin' you
    A7   D7      G   D/F#
Can hurt you somehow.

          Em                Bm7
Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy
       C                 G      G/F#
She'll beat you if she's able.
             Em7                 C                G   D/F#
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet.
       Em                Bm7
Now it seems to me, some fine things
          C              G
Have been laid upon your table.
        Em            A7
But you only want the ones
               Am7/D    D   D7
That you can't get.

     G
Desperado,
Dm7/G              C              Bm Am
Ohhhh you ain't getting no younger.
     G     D/F#        Em
Your pain and your hunger,
        A7          D7
They're driving you home.
    G           Dm7/G
And freedom, oh freedom.
                 C                 Bm Am
Well that's just some people talking.
     G    B7/F#     Em                   A7    D7   G    D/F#
Your prison is walking through this world all alone.

           Em                   Bm7
Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
    C                      G     D/F#
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine.
     Em               C                   G   D/F#
It's hard to tell the night time from the day.
           Em              Bm7
And you're losing all your highs and lows
         C             G
ain't it funny how the feeling goes
 Am7     Am7/D   D   D7
away...

     G
Desperado,
Dm7            C            Cm6
Why don't you come to your senses?
     G      D/F#        Em      A7       D7
come down from your fences, open the gate.
          G     Dm7               C        Cm6
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you.
           G    B7/F#        Em
You better let somebody love you.
 C     G/B      Am
(let somebody love you)
           G/D       B7/D#   Em
You better let somebody love you...ohhh..hooo
  Am7/D               G   G7
before it's too..oooo.. late.
