[Intro]
A A7 D Dm A F#m B7 E7
[Verse 1]
A A7 D Dm Desperado, why don't you come to your senses A F#m B7 E7 You been out riding fences for so long now A A7 Oh, you're a hard one D Dm But I know that you've got your reasons A F#m These things that are pleasing you B7 E7 A E 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 E You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet F#m C#m Now it seems to me, some fine things D A Have been laid upon your table F#m B7 Bm E But you only want the things that you can't get
[Verse 2]
A A7 D Dm Desperado, oh, you ain't getting no younger A F#m B7 E7 Your pain and your hunger, they're driving you home A A7 And freedom, oh freedom D Dm Well, that's just some people talking A F#m Your prison is walking B7 E7 A E Through this world all alone
[Chorus 2]
F#m C#m And don't your feet get cold in the winter time D A The sky won't snow, the sun won't shine F#m D A E It's hard to tell the night time from the day F#m C#m You're losing all your highs and lows D A Bm E E7 Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away
[Verse 3]
A D Dm Desperado, why don't you come to your senses A F#m B7 E7 Come down from your fences, and open the gate A A7 D Dm It may be raining, but there's a rainbow above you A F#m You better let somebody love you D Bm You better let somebody love you A C#7 F#m You better let somebody love you Bm E7 A Before it's too late
