Desper[G]ado,[G7]why don't you[C]come to your[Cm]senses

You've been[G]out riding fe[Em7]nces

For[A]so long now[D]　[D7]

Oh you're a[G]hard one

[G7]But I know that[C]you got your reasons[Cm]

These[G]things that[D#aug]are pl[Em7]easing you

Can[A]hurt you[D]somehow[G]　[D]

 

Don't you[Em]draw the Queen of[Bm7]Diamonds, boy

She'll[C]beat you if she's a[G]ble[B]

You know the[Em]Queen of Hearts is[C]always your best[G]bet[D]

Now it[Em]seems to me some[Bm7]fine things

Have been[C]laid upon your[G]table

But you[Em]only want the on[A7]es that you can't[C/D]get

 

[D]Despe[G]rado,[G7]you ain't get[C]ting no younger

Your[G]pain and[D]your hu[Em]nger

They're[A]driving you h[D]ome

And[G]freedom, oh[G7]freedom

Well, that's just some[C]people talking

Your[G]prison[B]is wa[Em]lking through this[A]world[D]all a[G]lone[D]

 

Don't your[Em]feet get cold in the[Bm7]winter time

The[C]sky won't snow and the[G]sun won't[D]shine

It's[Em]hard to tell the n[C]ight time from the d[G]ay

You're[Em]losing all your[Bm7]highs and lows

Ain't it[C]funny how the fe[G]eling goes a[Am7]way[Am7/D]

 

[D]Despe[G]rado,[F]why[F/B]don't you[C]come to your senses

Come[G]down from[D]your f[Em]ences[A]

Open the gate,[D] it may be[G]raining[F]

But[F/B]there's a[C]rainbow above you

You better[G]let some[B]body lo[Em]ve you[C]　[Bm]　[Am]

You better[G]let some[B]body lov[Em]e you

Be[D]fore it's too[G]late[G7]　[C]　[Cm]　[G]
