GCCm
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses ?
GEmAD
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
GCCm
Oh, you're a hard one, I know that you got your reasons,
GEmADG
These things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow
DEmBm
Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy,
CG
She'll beat you if she's able,
EmCGD
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
EmBmCG
Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table
EmAAm
But you only want the ones you can't get
DGCCm
Desperado, oh you ain't gettin' no younger,
GEmAD
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
GGCCm
And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin'
GEmADG
Your prison is walkin' through this world all alone
DEmBm
Don't your feet get cold in the winter time ?
CG
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
EmCGD
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
EmBm
You're losin' all your highs and lows
CGAm
Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes away
EADDm
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses
AEF#mBE
Come down from your fences, open the gate
ADDm
It may be rainin', oh but there's a rainbow above you
AC#F#mDABm
You better let somebody love you,
AC#F#mBmEA
You better let somebody love you before it's too late
