The Eagles: Desperado tabbed by: Hannah John http://www.pianotabs.net Desperado is one of my all-time favourite Eagles songs and is a great piano track as its piano driven all the way through. It’s really simple but sounds great. I play it in A to suit my voice but if you want to play it to the CD, the originals a tone down in G. INTRO: A A7 D Dm7 A F#m B7 E7 A G/A (A in bass) D Dm7 Desperado why don’t you come to your senses?
