      A  A7              D            Dm
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses
         A          F#m        B7      E7
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
             A       A7            D            Dm
Oh, you're a hard one, I know that you got your reasons,
      A               F#m              B7      E7   A
These things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow

(refrão 1)
          F#m                C#m
Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy,
       D                 A
She'll beat you if she's able,
             F#m                D                A
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
       F#m               C#m                   D              A
Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table
        B7                                  E7
But you only want the things that you can't get

      A   A7            D          Dm
Desperado, oh you ain't gettin' no younger,
      A            F#m              B7         E7
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
      A    A7             D                 Dm
And freedom, well, that's just some people talkin'
      A         F#m                  B7   E7    A
Your prison is walkin' through this world all alone

(refrão 2)
           F#m                  C#m
Don't your feet get cold in the winter time
     D                     A
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
     F#m                 D                 A
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
       F#m              C#m
You're losin' all your highs and lows
 D                      A           B7            E7
Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes away

      A  A7              D            Dm
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses
     A              F#m     B7       E7
Come down from your fences, open the gate
         A      A7               D         Dm
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
           A            F#m
You better let somebody love you,
           D            B7
You better let somebody love you
            A            F#m                 E7    A   
You better let somebody love you before it's too late
