Despe-
||G
rado,
G7 |
why don’t you
|C
come to your
Cm6 |
senses? You’ve been
|G
out ridin’
Em |
fences for
|A7
so long
D7 |
now, oh, you’re a-
||G
hard one,
F/G |
but I know that
|C
you’ve got your reasons,
Cm6 |
these
|D
things that
B/D#
are
Em7
pleasin’
- |24
you can
|24A7
hurt you
D7 |44
somehow,
|44G
D/F# |
don’t you-
||Em
draw the queen of
Bm |
diamonds, boy, she’ll
|C
beat you,
-
if she’s a-
G
ble,
D/F# |
you know the
|Em
queen of hearts is
C |
always your best
|G
bet,
D/F# |
now it-
||Em
seems to me some
Bm |
fine things have been
|C
laid upon your
G |
table, but you
|Em
only want the
A7 |
ones that you can’t
|C/D
get,
D |
despe-
||G
rado,
G7 |
ah, you
|C
ain’t gettin’ no
-
younger,
-
G/B |
your
|G
pain and
D/F#
your
Em
hunger,
- |
they’re
|A7
drivin’ you
C/D |
home-
||G
Freedom, oh,
G7 |
freedom, that’s just
|C
some people
-
talkin’,
-
G/B |
your
|G
prison
D/F#
is
Em
walking
- |24
through this
|24A7
world all
D |44
alone,
|44G
D/F# |
don’t your-
||Em
feet get cold in the
Bm |
wintertime? The
|C
sky won’t
-
snow and the
G
sun won’t
D/F# |
shine, it’s
|Em
hard to tell the
C |
nighttime from the
|G |
day, you’re-
||Em
losin’ all your
Bm |
highs and lows, ain’t it
|C
funny how the
G |
feeling goes a-
|Am7 |
way?
|C/D
D |
Despe-
||G
rado,
G7 |
why don’t you
|C
come to your
Cm6 |
senses? Come
|G
down from
D/F#
your
Em
fences,
- |
|A7
open the
D7 |
gate, it may be-
||G
rainin’,
G7 |
but there’s a
|C
rainbow above
Cm6 |
you, you better
|G
let some-
D/F#
body
Em
love you,
- |
|C
G/B
Am7
- |
you better-
||D
let some-
B/D#
body
Em7
love you,
