Desperado (by the Eagles)

saw this on someone else's blog. a favourite song of mine since.. time immemorial. i'm sure i've heard it over a thousand times, esp during the times in JC. sad case.

maybe i'm just too desperate. enjoy.

also heard it on singapore idol II by this guy. hope he wins.

Verse:
G G7/B C Cm
desperado, why don't you come to your senses
G Em A D
you've been out riding fences, for so long now
G B7 C Cm
oh you're a hard one, now i'd know that you got your reasons
G B7 Em Am D G
these things that are pleasing you, can't hurt you somehow

*Chorus:
Em Bm
don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy
C G
she'll beat you if she's able
Em C G D/F#
the queen of hearts is always your best bet
Em Bm
now it seems to me some fine things
C G
have been laid upon your table
Em A Am
but you only want the ones that you can't get
D7 G
desperado

Verse:
oh 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

*Chorus:
don't your feet get cold in the wintertime?
the sky won't snow, and the sun won't shine
it's hard to tell the nighttime from the day
you're losing all your highs and lows
ain't it funny how the feeling goes
away...

D7 G
desperado
G G7/B C Cm
why don't you come to your senses
G Em A D
come down from your fences, and open the gate
G B7 C Cm
it may be raining, but there's a rainbow above you
G D/F# Em C Am
you'd better let somebody love you (let somebody love you)
G D/F# Em
oh, you'd better let somebody love you
Am G
before it's too late
