[Verse 1]

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


[Bridge 1]

          Em                Bm7
Don't you draw the Queen of Diamonds, Boy,
       C                 G
She'll beat you if she's able,
             Em7                C                G    B7
You know the Queen of Hearts is always your best bet.
        Em                    Bm7
Well it seems to me some fine things
          C              G
Have been laid upon your table,
        Em            A7                  Am7
But you only want the ones that you can't get.


[Verse 2]

      G7                C             Cm
Desperado, you know you ain't getting younger,
     G             Em7             A7          D7
Your pain and your hunger, they're driving you home.
    G           G7                   C                Cm
And freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people talking,
     G         B       Em7          A7    D7  G     D   F#
Your prison is walking through this world all alone.


[Bridge 2]

           Em                   Bm7
Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime?
    C                      G
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine,
     Em7              C         G        B7
It's hard to tell the nighttime from the day.
        Em               Bm7
You're losing all your highs and lows,
       C               G
Ain't it funny how the feeling
Em    A7     Am7
Goes away?


[Verse 3]

     G7                  C            Cm
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
     G             Em7      A7       D7
Come down from your fences, open the gate.
          G        G7            C       Cm
It may be raining, but there's a rainbow above you,
           G       B    Em7
You better let somebody love you,


[Otro]

    G        G7   Em
Let somebody love you,
           G       B7   Em
You better let somebody love you,
  A7        D7  G
Before it's too late.
