Bass & Guitar 2 plays G


              G                   C
De-de-de-desperado, why don't you come to your senses ?
         G          Em         A       D
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
              G                    C
Oh, you're a hard one, I know that you got your reasons,
      G               Em               A            G
These things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow


          Em                Bm
Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy,
       C                 G
She'll beat you if she's able,
    Em                C                          G    G G/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                           A
But you only want the ones you can't get


              G                   C
De-de-de-desperado, oh you ain't gettin' no younger,
      G            Em              A           D
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
    G                          C
And freedom, well, that's just some people talkin'
     G         Em                   A           G
Your prison is walkin' through this world all alone

           Em                         Bm
Don't your feet get cold in the winter time ?
    C                      G
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
     Em               C                   G      G G/F#
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
       Em              Bm
You're losin' all your highs and lows
         C             G            A        D
Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes away    Away


           G    G/F#            C
Desperado,        why don't you come to your senses
     G              Em      A          D
Come down from your fences,   open the gate
          G      G/F#                C
It may be rainin',     but there's a rainbow above you
           G      G/F#   Em         C  G  A
You better let somebody love you,
           G      G/F#  Em
You better let somebody love you...          before it's too…… three, four!
