DESPERADO-Glenn Frey/Don Henley 4/4 1234 12 (without intro)
Intro: | | | | |
Despe-rado, why don't you come to your senses? You been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one, but I know that you got your reasons,
These things that are pleasin' you can hurt you some -how
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 laid upon your table
But you only want the ones you can't get
p.2. Desperado
Despe-rado, oh you ain't gettin' no younger, your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
And freedom, oh, freedom, well, that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walkin' through this world all a-lone
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 night time from the day
You're losin' all your highs and lows, ain't it funny how the feelin' goes a-way
Despe-rado, why don't you come to your senses, come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let some-body love you, ("let some-body love you")
You better let some-body love you..... be-fore it's too late

wf4 12/23/17 Instructions: I consolidated this song sheet onto one page by using a standard sheet music style. It uses a single line for chords, with lyrics for the two verses below the chord line. The song sequence includes a repeat, called a segno, and a skip, called a coda. To play the song, start at the beginning and sing the 1st verse line until you reach the command “To Segno,” then go back to where you read “Segno” and sing the 2nd verse line. Ignore the command “To Coda” the first time you reach it. After singing the 2nd verse, you reach the command “To Coda” a second time. This command means skip to where you read “Coda,” which is the last line of the song.

ON THE ROAD AGAIN 4/4 1234 12
On the road again, just can’t wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin’ music with my friends, and I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain.
On the road again, goin’ places that I’ve never been
Seein’ things that I may never see again, and I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain.
On the road again, like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We’re the best of friends, insisting that the world be turnin’ our way….and our way
Is on the road again, just can’t wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin’ music with my friends, and I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain
And I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain. And I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain.

It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese A7 D7Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick G It'd hold eight kids, four hound dogs C G and a piggy we stole from the shed C We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun
D7 G On Grandma's feather bed
G C After the supper we'd sit around the fire, G D7 the old folks'd spit and chew G C Pa would talk about the farm and the war G D7 G and Granny'd sing a ballad or two C I'd sit and listen and watch the fire G D7 ‘til the cobwebs filled my head G C Next thing I’d know I'd wake up in the morning D7 G in the middle of the old feather bed
CHORUS �
G C Well I love my Ma, an' I love my Pa, G D7love Granny and Grandpa too G C I been fishing with my uncle, I wrestled with my cousin, G D7 G
I even kissed Aunt Lou (eeeew!) C But if ever had to make a choice, G D7

TEQUILA SUNRISE-Don Henley/Glenn Frey
4/4 1…2…1234
Intro: | | | | |
It's another tequila sunrise, starin' slowly 'cross the sky,
Said good-bye
He was just a hired hand, workin' on the dreams he planned to try, the days go by
Ev'ry night when the sun goes down, just another lonely boy in town
And she's out runnin' 'round
She wasn't just another woman, and I couldn't keep from comin' on
It's been so long
Oh, and it's a hollow feelin', when it comes down to dealin' friends,
It never ends
p.2. Tequila Sunrise
Interlude:
Take another shot of courage, wonder why the right words never come
You just get numb
It's another tequila sunrise, this old world still looks the same
Another frame, mm...
