Thought another one of Black's wonderful songs won't hurt much. This time it's Prarthonad by Black (album - Amar Prithibi)... a very exotic and intense song. Before anything else, let me write the whole lyrics in one place... in case you need it -- verse 1: amaar e jeebon taa ke aami bujhte pereo bujhe uthini aami ki tomaar tuleer achor shudhu tomaar ronger khoraak shudhu bridge: aar laal ronger tulee te rangio na amaar jibon amaar aka shopno gulo chhire phele duhshopno (tumi) aar eko na chorus: chai na ghreena korte tomaake chai shudhu tomaake prarthonae (...aami) verse 2: purono chador poshchime bichiye aami eka boshe tomaar tore amaar prarthona tomaar tore amaar aartonaad The verse part is basically over two very strong chords: Am and E7. You can use E(major) instead of E7(dominant7th), but I prefer E7 because it has the note D on the upper strings, and we'll use the note D a lot over the chord. So with a plain E major you won't get the desired effect. But don't be scared, E7 is pretty easy to play... Just play E(major) with the 4th finger(pinky/KONISHTHA) of your left hand put on the 3rd fret, string 2( B ) -- E 022100 E7 022130 Am-----------------E7------- amaar e jeebon taa ke aami Am-------------E7---------- bujhte pereo bujhe uthini Am------G--------F-------E7--------- aami ki tomaar tuleer achor shudhu Am-----G---------F-------E7--- tomaar ronger khoraak shudhu The chords we're using... Am 002210 E 022100 G 320003 F 133211 Now the bridge part... here I refer to the part(which repeats later) right after the verse as BRIDGE. Am--------F---------C----------E7--- aar laal ronger tulee te rangio na --------Am--- amaar jibon Am----------------F------------C---- amaar aka shopno gulo chhire phele -----E7------------------Am-- duhshopno (tumi) aar eko na Am 002210 C 332010 The chorus part sounds so exotic... if you use the right chords, of course... Am------F---------C------E7---- chai na ghreena korte tomaake C-----------F-C-----E7---------- chai shudhu tomaake prarthonae C-----------F-C-----E7--------- chai shudhu tomaake prarthona C-----------Am-------E7--------Am-- aa-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa-e aami NOW comes the hard part... If you want to perform this song properly, surely you need to play this part. As you know, it's done by the keys(Tahsan), but maybe you can play it on the guitar also... how's that? If you have a bassist or if it's too hard for you, just cut the bass part (the open 4,5 and 6 strings) off. It's the prelude, and also played all over the place slightly changed... ..Am. . . . . . . .

Then you should try some exciting things... Here's the verse, using guitar's full versatility (don't panic, they're all in easy chord shapes) -- ..Am. . . . . . . . E7. . . . . . . . e|----0---|----0---|--------|--------| B|--1-----|--1---1-|3---3x3-|--------| G|2-----2-|2-------|1---1x1-|--------| D|--------|--------|2---2x2-|--------| A|0-----0-|0-------|2---2x2-|--------| E|--------|--------|--------|--------| Play this twice, then play the next figure twice -- ..Am. . . .G. . . .

Again, place your thumb(BURO ANGOOL) on string 4(D), 5(A) or 6(E), your 1st finger(TORJONI) on string 3(G), your 2nd finger(MODHDHOMA) on string 2( B ), your 3st finger(ONAMIKA) on string 1(high E). You'll need to move them as required for the piece. Here's the guitar TAB for the bridge part... for more advanced players(play the figure twice) -- ..Am. . . . . . . . F . . . . . . . . e|--------|0---x-0x|1---x-1x|--------| B|1---x-1x|1---x-1x|1---x-1x|1---x-1x| G|2---x-2x|2---x-2x|2---x-2x|2---x-2x| D|2---x-2x|--------|--------|3---x-3x| A|0---x-0x|0---x-0x|--------|--------| E|--------|--------|1---x-1x|1---x-1x| ..C . . . . . . . .

All the chords used are simply the easy chord shapes. Pluck three notes with three fingers and the root bass note with the thumb of your right hand. Finally, the chorus part with full accompaniment with a single guitar... ..Am. . . . . . . . F . . . . . . . . e|0---0---|0---0---|1---1---|1---1---| B|1---1---|1---1---|1---1---|1---1---| G|2---2---|2---2---|2---2---|2---2---| D|2---2---|2---2---|3---3---|3---3---| A|0---0---|0---0---|3---3---|3---3---| E|0---0---|0---0---|1---1---|1---1---| ..C . . . . . . . .
