1. Desperado,      why don't you come to your senses ?

    You been out ridin' fences for so long now.

                          G         - G7                     C                              - Cm

    Oh, you're a hard one,      I know that you got your reasons,

                G             B7   Em                     A7         D7     G

    these things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow.

D                   Em                        Bm

    Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy,

               C                       G

    she'll beat you if she's able,

                             Em                      C                         G     - D

    you know the queen of hearts is always your best bet.

                Em                         Bm

    Now it seems to me some fine things

                       C                     G

    have been laid upon your table,

                 Em                  A7                   Am

    but you only want the ones you can't get.

2. Desperado,        oh ,you ain't gettin' no younger,

              G                  Em                     A7            D7

    your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home.

               G               G7                    C                            - Cm

    And freedom, oh well, that's just some people talkin',

              G      B7  Em                           A7        D7 G

    your prison  is  walkin' through this world all alone.

D                    Em                         Bm

    Don't your feet get cold in the winter time ?

             C                                   G

    The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine.

          Em                   C                            G  

    It's hard to tell the night time from the day

D             Em                 Bm

    You're losin' all your highs and lows,

               C                      G                 Am   - D

    ain't it funny how the feelin' goes away.

    It may be rainin',      but there's a rainbow above you,

                     G            B7    Em                            C       Am

    you better let somebody love you, (you better let sb.love you),
