We have an official Desperado tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
Band: Eagles
Song: Desperado
Tab: Bass Guitar
By: Nick Walker
 
Tuning: 1 whole step down (for those who don't know what that means...      D, G, C, F)
 
Notes:  Well I have some.  First off, the bass enters like 1 min. into the song, and
even play the entire song.  Basically, the song is all piano!  The bass enters at the
"Don't you draw the Queen of diamonds boy...".  The bass line is really simple and VERY
 It is easy, and fun.  Any Questions, don't be afraid to ask.  Send me a PM or an
(n_s_w@comcast.net).  Thanks and Enjoy!

You probably went through a lot of work to complete your tab. I'm not sure why you didn't tab it in the key of G that it was written in. The bass actually comes in later than you indicated. It comes in at "Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime"
