Am                          G#dim7
My friend came to me, with sadness in his eyes
 Am                        F
He told me that he wanted help
   E+               E7
Before his country dies
    Am                               G#dim7
Although I couldn't feel the pain, I knew I had
to try
 Am            F
Now I'm asking all of you
    E+                E7 Am
To help us save some lives

Am
Bangla Desh, Bangla Desh
E7
Where so many people are dying fast
             Dm
And it sure looks like a mess
            G#7
I've never seen such distress
               E
Now won't you lend your hand and understand
             Dm               E7
Relieve the people of Bangla Desh

Bangla Desh, Bangla Desh
Such a great disaster - I don't understand
But it sure looks like a mess
I've never known such distress
Now please don't turn away, I want to hear you say
             Dm               C
Relieve the people of Bangla Desh
Relieve Bangla Desh

Bangla Desh, Bangla Desh
Now it may seem so far from where we all are
It's something we can't neglect
It's something I can't neglect
Now won't you give some bread to
get the starving fed

               Dm            C  E
We've got to relieve Bangla Desh
             Dm               C  E
Relieve the people of Bangla Desh
               Dm            C   Am E7 Dm G#7
We've got to relieve Bangla Desh
               E
Now won't you lend your hand and understand
             Dm               E7
Relieve the people of Bangla Desh
