      A  A7              D              Dm
Desperado, why donʼt you come to your senses?
         A            F#m7      B7        E7
You been out ridinʼ fences for so long now
             A       A7            D               Dm
Oh, youʼre a hard one, I know that you got your reasons,
      A           C#7     F#m7           B7       E7     A
These things that are pleasinʼ you can hurt you somehow

E         F#m                C#m
Donʼt you draw the queen of diamonds boy,
       D                 A
Sheʼll beat you if sheʼs able,
             F#m7                D                A   E
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
       F#m               C#m                    D              A
Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table
        F#m            B7             Bm7
But you only want the ones you canʼt get

E E7  A  A7             D             Dm
Desperado, oh you ainʼt gettinʼ no younger,
     A               F#m7           B7          E7
Your pain and your hunger, theyʼre drivinʼ you home
    A      A7                  D             Dm
And freedom, well, thatʼs just some people talkinʼ
     A      C#7   F#m7                B7        E7   A
Your prison is walkinʼ through this world all alone

E          F#m                   C#m
Donʼt your feet get cold in the winter time ?
    D                  A
The sky wonʼt snow and the sun wonʼt shine
     F#m7              D                   A    E
Itʼs hard to tell the night time from the day
       F#m              C#m
Youʼre losinʼ all your highs and lows
         D             A             Bm7
Ainʼt it funny how the feelinʼ goes away

E  E7 A  A7              D              Dm
Desperado, why donʼt you come to your senses
     A         E      F#m  B7         E7
Come down from your fences, open the gate
          A      A7               D           Dm
It may be raininʼ,  but thereʼs a rainbow above you
           A       C#7   F#m         D  A  Bm7
You better let somebody love you,
           A       C#7   F#m         Bm7       E7  A
You better let somebody love you before itʼs too late
