Desperado chords *
The Eagles 1973 "Desperado" (Glenn Frey and Don Henley)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desperado_(Eagles_song)
Desperado, why don't you come
to your senses
You've been out ridin' fences,
for so long - now.
Oh you're a hard one.
I know that you've got your
reasons.
These things that are pleasin'
you
Can hurt you somehow.
Don't you draw the queen of
diamonds boy
She'll beat you if she's able.
You know the queen of hearts is
always your best bet.
Now it seems to me, some fine
things
Have been laid upon your table.
But you only want the ones
That you can't get.
Desperado,
Ohhhh you ain't getting no
younger.
Your pain and your hunger,
They're driving you home.
And freedom, oh freedom.
Well that's just some people
talking.
Your prison is walking through
this world all alone.
Don't your feet get cold in the
winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun
won't shine.
It's hard to tell the night time
from the day.
And you're losing all your highs
and lows
ain't it funny how the feeling
goes
away...
Desperado,
Why don't you come to your
senses?
come down from your fences, open
the gate.
It may be rainin', but there's a
rainbow above you.
You better let somebody love
you.
(let somebody love you)
You better let somebody love
you...ohhh..hooo
before it's too..oooo.. late.
