Desperado Chords & Lyrics - Judy Collins

[VERSE 1]
Despe[C]rado, why don't you [F]come to your [Fm]senses
You been [C]out ridin' [Am]fences for [D]so long [G]now
Oh, you're a [C]hard one, I know that [F]you got your [Fm]reasons
These [C]things that are [Am]pleasin' you can [D]hurt you some[C]how [G]

[VERSE 2]
Don't you [Am]draw the queen of [Em]diamonds boy
She'll [F]beat you if she's [C]able
The [Am]queen of hearts is [F]always your best [C]bet [G]
Now it [Am]seems to me some [Em]fine things have been [F]laid upon your [C]table
But you [Am]only want the [D]ones you can't [Dm7]get [G]

[VERSE 3]
Despe[C]rado, oh you ain't [F]gettin' no [Fm]younger
Your [C]pain and your [Am]hunger, they're [D]drivin' you [G]home
And [C]freedom, oh freedom, well, that's just [F]some people [Fm]talkin'
Your [C]prison is walkin' through this [D]world all a[C]lone [G]

[VERSE 4]
Don't your [Am]feet get cold in the [Em]winter time
The [F]sky won't snow and the [C]sun won't shine
It's [Am]hard to tell the [F]night time from the [C]day [G]
You're [Am]losin' all your [Em]highs and lows
Ain't it [F]funny how the [C]feelin' goes [Dm7]away [G]

[VERSE 5]
Despe[C]rado, why don't you [F]come to your [Fm]senses
Come [C]down from your [Am]fences and [D]open the [G]gate
It may be [C]rainin', but there's a [F]rainbow a[Fm]bove you
You better [C]let somebody [Am]love you
[F]Let somebody [C]love [Dm7]you
You better [C]let somebody [Am]love you
Be[G]fore it's too [C]late [F] [Fm]
You better [C]let somebody [Am]love you [D7]
Be[F]fore it's too [C]late
