Intro: Eb Eb7 | G# G#m6
       Eb Cm | F7 Bb

     Eb    Eb9
Desperado,
              G#             G#m6
Why don’t you come to your senses?
            Eb           Cm7
You’ve been out riding fences
    F7        Bb7
For so long now.
             Eb        Ebsus4add9
Oh, you’re a hard one,
            G#                    G#m6
I know that you got your reasons,
      Eb/Bb       G/B   Cm7
These things that are pleasing you
    F7       Bb7      Eb Bb/D
Can hurt you somehow.

             Cm
   Don’t you draw
                 Gm7
   The queen of diamonds, boy,
          G#                  Eb Eb/D
   She’ll beat you if she’s able
                Cm7
   You know the queen of hearts
      G#                Eb
   Is always your best bet.
 Bb/D     Cm                Gm7
   Now it seems to me some fine things
             G#             Eb
   Have been laid upon your table,
           Cm             F7
   But you only want the ones
                  Fm7/Bb
   That you can’t get.

Bb Bb7 Eb  Bbm7/Eb
Desperado,
          G#                      Gm Fm
Oh, you ain’t getting no younger,
     Eb       Bb/D  Cm
Your pain and your hunger,
        F7           Bb7
They’re driving you home.
    Eb           Bbm7/Eb
And freedom, oh, freedom,
Well, that’s just
G#                   Gm
Some people talking,
Fm   Eb     G7/D  Cm
Your prison is walking
             F7        Bb7 Eb Bb/D
Through this world all alone.

              Cm
   Don’t your feet get cold
          Gm7
   In the wintertime?
       G#
   The sky won’t snow
           Eb        Bb/D
   And the sun won’t shine,
        Cm                 G#
   It’s hard to tell the nighttime
            Eb  Bb/D
   From the day
          Cm               Gm7
   You’re losing all your highs and lows.
            G#             Eb
   Ain’t it funny how the feeling goes
    Fm7 Fm7/Bb
   Away?

Bb Bb7 Eb  Bbm7
Desperado,
              G#             G#m6
Why don’t you come to your senses?
     Eb        Bb/D   Cm    F7
Come down from your fences,
               Bb7
Open the gate.
          Eb       Bbm7
It may be raining,
              G#              G#m6
But there’s a rainbow above you.
           Eb      G7/D   Cm
You better let somebody love you
 G#      Eb/G   Fm
(Let somebody love you),
           Eb/Bb   G7/B  Cm
You better let somebody love you
  Fm7/Bb         Eb
Before it’s too late.
