Desperado by The Eagles

G G7 C Cm

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses

G Em7 A7 D7

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 Em7 A7 D7 G D/F#

These things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow





Em Bm

Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy,

C G G/F#

She'll beat you if she's able,

Em7 C G D/F#

You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet

Em Bm C G

Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table

Em A7 Am7/D

But you only want the ones you can't get





D G G7 C C C/B C/A

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

G G/F# Em7 A7 D D/C

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

G Dm7/G C C C/B C/A

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

G B7 Em7 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 D/F#

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

Em7 C G D/F#

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

Em Bm

You're losin' all your highs and lows

C G Am7 Am7/D D

Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes away





D G Dm7/G C Cm

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses

G Em A7 D7

Come down from your fences, open the gate

G Dm7/G C Cm6

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

G B7/F# Em C G/B Am7

You better let somebody love you,

G/D B7/D# Em

You better let somebody love you

Am7/D

before it's too

G
