A A7 D Dm Desperado, why don't you come to your senses
A F#m B7 E7 You been out ridin' fences for so long now
A A7 D Dm Oh, you're a hard one, I know that you got your reasons,
A F#m B7 E7 A These things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow [Chorus 1]
F#m C#m Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy,
D A She'll beat you if she's able,
F#m D A You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
F#m C#m D Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon
A your table

B7 E7 But you only want the things that you can't get
A A7 D Dm Desperado, oh you ain't gettin' no younger,
A F#m B7 E7 Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
A A7 D And freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people
Dm talkin'
A F#m B7 E7 Your prison is walkin' through this world all alone [Chorus 2]
F#m C#m Don't your feet get cold in the winter time
D A The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
F#m D A It's hard to tell the night time from the day
F#m C#m You're losin' all your highs and lows
D A B7 E7 Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes away
A A7 D Dm Desperado, why don't you come to your senses
A F#m B7 E7 Come down from your fences, open the gate
A A7 D Dm It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
A F#m B7 E7 You better let somebody love you,
A F#m B7 E7 You better let somebody love you
A F#m You better let somebody love you
B7 E7 A before it's too late
