or the chords are:

Desper

ado

, why don't you

come to your se

nses ?

You been

out ridin' fe

nces for

so long no

Oh, you're a

hard one

, I know that

you got your rea

sons,

These

things that

are ple

asin' 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 l

aid upon your t

able

But you

only want the

ones you can't

get

sper

ado,

oh you ain't

gettin' no younger,

Your

pain and

your hun

ger, they're

drivin' you

home

And

freedom, oh,

freedom, well, that's just

some people talkin'

Your

prison

walki

n' 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 ni

ght time from the

day

You're

losin' all your

highs and lows

Ain't it

funny how the

feelin' goes a

way

Des

per

ado

, why don't you c

ome to your sen

ses

Come

down from

your fen

ces,

open the gate

It may be

rainin'

, but there's a r

ainbow above y

You better

let some

bod

y lo

ve you,

You better

let some

bod
