[Chorus 1]
          F#m                C#mDon't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy

       F#m               C#mNow it seems to me, some fine things
           D              AHave been laid upon your table
        F#m             B7                  Bm    EBut you only want the things that you can't get

[Verse 2]
      A    A7            D          DmDesperado, oh, you ain't getting no younger
      A            F#m             B7           E7Your pain and your hunger, they're driving you home
    A           A7And freedom, oh freedom
                  D           DmWell, that's just some people talking
     A         F#mYour prison is walking
              B7   E7    A     EThrough this world all alone


[Chorus 2]
               F#m                   C#mAnd don't your feet get cold in the winter time
    D                    AThe sky won't snow, the sun won't shine
      F#m              D                   A    EIt's hard to tell the night time from the day
        F#m             C#mYou're losing all your highs and lows
          D            A             Bm   E   E7Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away

[Verse 3]
     A                    D             DmDesperado, why don't you come to your senses
      A              F#m         B7       E7Come down from your fences, and open the gate
            A     A7              D       DmIt may be raining, but there's a rainbow above you
            A            F#mYou better let somebody love you
            D            BmYou better let somebody love you
            A       C#7  F#mYou better let somebody love you
  Bm         E7  ABefore it's too late
