Intro: Bb Bb7 | Eb Ebm6
       Bb Gm | C7 F

     Bb    Bb9
Desperado,
              Eb             Ebm6
Why don’t you come to your senses?
            Bb           Gm7
You’ve been out riding fences
    C7        F7
For so long now.
             Bb        Bbsus4add9
Oh, you’re a hard one,
            Eb                    Ebm6
I know that you got your reasons,
      Bb/F        D/F#  Gm7
These things that are pleasing you
    C7       F7       Bb F/A
Can hurt you somehow.

             Gm
   Don’t you draw
                 Dm7
   The queen of diamonds, boy,
          Eb                  Bb Bb/A
   She’ll beat you if she’s able
                Gm7
   You know the queen of hearts
      Eb                Bb
   Is always your best bet.
 F/A      Gm                Dm7
   Now it seems to me some fine things
             Eb             Bb
   Have been laid upon your table,
           Gm             C7
   But you only want the ones
                  Cm7/F
   That you can’t get.

F F7 Bb    Fm7/Bb
Desperado,
          Eb                      Dm Cm
Oh, you ain’t getting no younger,
     Bb       F/A   Gm
Your pain and your hunger,
        C7           F7
They’re driving you home.
    Bb           Fm7/Bb
And freedom, oh, freedom,
Well, that’s just
Eb                   Dm
Some people talking,
Cm   Bb     D7/A  Gm
Your prison is walking
             C7        F7 Bb  F/A
Through this world all alone.

              Gm
   Don’t your feet get cold
          Dm7
   In the wintertime?
       Eb
   The sky won’t snow
           Bb        F/A
   And the sun won’t shine,
        Gm                 Eb
   It’s hard to tell the nighttime
            Bb  F/A
   From the day
          Gm               Dm7
   You’re losing all your highs and lows.
            Eb             Bb
   Ain’t it funny how the feeling goes
    Cm7 Cm7/F
   Away?

F F7 Bb    Fm7
Desperado,
              Eb             Ebm6
Why don’t you come to your senses?
     Bb        F/A    Gm    C7
Come down from your fences,
               F7
Open the gate.
          Bb       Fm7
It may be raining,
              Eb              Ebm6
But there’s a rainbow above you.
           Bb      D7/A   Gm
You better let somebody love you
 Eb      Bb/D   Cm
(Let somebody love you),
           Bb/F    D7/F# Gm
You better let somebody love you
  Cm7/F          Bb
Before it’s too late.
