[G]Desperado[Dm/G]

Why don't you [C]come to your [Am7-5]senses

You've been [G/D]out riding [Em]fences for [A7]so long [D7]now

Oh you're a [G]hard one[G7] but I know that [C]you got your [Am7-5]reasons

These [G/D]things that [B/D#]are [Em]pleasing you can [Am7]hurt you [D7]somehow[G]

 

[D/F#]Don't you [Em]draw the Queen of [Bm]Diamonds, boy

She'll [C]beat you if she's [G]able[D/F#]

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

Now it [Em]seems to me some [Bm]fine things have been [C]laid upon your [G]table[D/F#]

But you [Em]only want the [A7]ones that you can't [C/D]get[D7]

 

Desperado,[G]　[Am]　[G/B]you ain't[C] getting no younger

[G/B]　[Am]Your [G]pain and [D/F#]your [Em]hunger

They're [A7]driving you [D7]home

[C/E]　[D/F#]And[G] freedom, oh [F/A]freedom[G7/B]

Well, that's just [C]some people talking [G/B]　[Am]your

[G]prison [B/F#]is [Em]walking through this [A7]world [D7]all [G]alone[D/F#]

 

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

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

It's[Em] hard to tell the [C]night time from the [G]day[D/F#]

You're [Em]losing all your [Em]highs and lows ain't it

[C]funny how the [G]feeling goes [Am7]away[Am/D]

 

[G]Desperado[F/A]

Why [G/B]don't you [C]come to your [Am7-5]senses

Come [G]down from [B/F#]your [Em]fences [A7]open the gate[D7]

It may be [G]raining [F/A]but [G/B]there's a [C]rainbow above you[Am7-5]

You better [G]let [D/F#]somebody [Em]love[G/D] you[C]　[G/B]　[Am]
