Intro: F# F#7 | B Bm6
       F# Ebm | G#7 C#

     F#    F#9
Desperado,
              B              Bm6
Why don’t you come to your senses?
            F#           Ebm7
You’ve been out riding fences
    G#7       C#7
For so long now.
             F#        F#sus4add9
Oh, you’re a hard one,
            B                     Bm6
I know that you got your reasons,
      F#/C#       Bb/D  Ebm7
These things that are pleasing you
    G#7      C#7      F# C#/F
Can hurt you somehow.

             Ebm
   Don’t you draw
                 Bbm7
   The queen of diamonds, boy,
          B                   F# F#/F
   She’ll beat you if she’s able
                Ebm7
   You know the queen of hearts
      B                 F#
   Is always your best bet.
 C#/F     Ebm               Bbm7
   Now it seems to me some fine things
             B              F#
   Have been laid upon your table,
           Ebm            G#7
   But you only want the ones
                  G#m7/C#
   That you can’t get.

C# C#7 F#  C#m7/F#
Desperado,
          B                       Bbm G#m
Oh, you ain’t getting no younger,
     F#       C#/F  Ebm
Your pain and your hunger,
        G#7          C#7
They’re driving you home.
    F#           C#m7/F#
And freedom, oh, freedom,
Well, that’s just
B                    Bbm
Some people talking,
G#m  F#     Bb7/F Ebm
Your prison is walking
             G#7       C#7 F# C#/F
Through this world all alone.

              Ebm
   Don’t your feet get cold
          Bbm7
   In the wintertime?
       B
   The sky won’t snow
           F#        C#/F
   And the sun won’t shine,
        Ebm                B
   It’s hard to tell the nighttime
            F#  C#/F
   From the day
          Ebm              Bbm7
   You’re losing all your highs and lows.
            B              F#
   Ain’t it funny how the feeling goes
    G#m7 G#m7/C#
   Away?

C# C#7 F#  C#m7
Desperado,
              B              Bm6
Why don’t you come to your senses?
     F#        C#/F   Ebm   G#7
Come down from your fences,
               C#7
Open the gate.
          F#       C#m7
It may be raining,
              B               Bm6
But there’s a rainbow above you.
           F#      Bb7/F  Ebm
You better let somebody love you
 B       F#/Bb  G#m
(Let somebody love you),
           F#/C#   Bb7/D Ebm
You better let somebody love you
  G#m7/C#        F#
Before it’s too late.
