(George Harrison 1971)
Am
My friend came to me
E7
With sadness in his eyes
CAm
Told me that he wanted help
CE
Before his country dies
Am
Although I couldn't feel the pain
E7
I knew I had to try
CAm
Now I'm asking all of you
CE
Help us save some lives
AmE
Bangla Desh, Bangla Desh
Where so many people are dying fast
Dm
And it sure looks like a mess
G#
I've never seen such distress
E
Now won't you lend your hand
Try to understand
DmE7
Relieve the people of Bangla Desh
