[Verse]
D7     G  G7             C              Cm
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses ?
         G            Em7      A7        D7
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
             G       G7            C               Cm
Oh, you're a hard one, I know that you got your reasons,
      G                Em7             A7       D7     G  D/F#
These things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow

[Chorus]
          Em7               Bm7
Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy,
       C                 G    D/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
       Em7              Bm7                   C              G
Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table
        Em7           A7             Am7
But you only want the ones you can't get

[Verse]
D D7  G  G7             C             Cm
Desperado, oh you ain't gettin' no younger,
Am7  G        D/F#    Em7          A7          D7
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
    G           G7                          C                Cm
And freedom, oh freedom, well, that's just some people talkin'
Am7  G         Em7                  A7    D7    G   D/F#
Your prison is walkin' through this world all alone

[Chorus]
           Em7                  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
     Em7              C                   G    D
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
       Em7             Bm7
You're losin' all your highs and lows
         C             G             Am7     D
Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes away

[Verse]
  D7 G     Dm7           C               Cm
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses
     G         D/F#    Em   A7       D7
Come down from your fences, open the gate
          G        G7                      C            Cm
It may be rainin', oh yeah, but there's a rainbow above you
           G       D/F# Em         C  G  Am7
You better let somebody love you,
           G       D/F# Em        Am7         C      G
You better let somebody love you, before it's tooooo late

G7  C   Cm  G
