[G] [Em] [G] [C]
[Cm] [G] [Em]
[A] [G] [D]
[G] Desperado, [Dm] why [C] don't you come to your [Cm] senses?
[G] You've been [D] out riding [Em] fences
[A] for so [D] long now
[G] Or you're a hard one.
[Dm] I [C] know
You got your [Cm] reasons
[G] These [D#] things that are [Em] pleasing you
[C#] Can [D] hurt you [G] somehow
[D] [Em] Don't you drive the [Bm] queen of diamonds [C] boy
She'll beat you if she's [G] able
[D] You [Em] know the queen of hearts [C] is always [G] this big
[D] [Em] Now it seems to [Bm] me some fine things
[C] Have been laid [G] upon your [Bm] table
[Em] But you only [A] want the ones
[G] that you can't get
[D] [G]
[Dm] Desperado
Oh [C] you ain't getting no younger
[Am]
[G] Your [D] pain and your [Em] hunger
[A] They're driving [D] you home
[G] And freedom, oh [Dm] freedom
[C] That's just some people talking
[G] Your prison [B] is [Em] walking through [A] this [D] world all [G] alone
[D] [Em] Don't your feet get [Bm] cold in the wintertime?
[C] The sky won't [G] snow and the [D] sun won't [Em] shine
[G] It's hard [C] to tell the night [G] time from the day
[C] [Em] You're losing [Bm] all your highs and [C] lows
And it's funny [G] how the feeling [C] goes away
[D]
[G] [Dm] [B] Desperado
Why [C] don't you come to [Cm] your senses?
[G] [D] Come down [Em] from your fences
[A]
Oh [D] love you
[G] It may be raining
[Dm] But [C] there's a rainbow [Cm] above you
[G] You better [D] let [Em] somebody love you
[C] [G] Desperado
You better let [Am] somebody love you
You [G] better [B] let somebody [Em] love you
[Am] Before [D] it's too late
[Am] [G] [Dm] [G]
[C] [Cm]
