A#                 Dm           D#         A#
When the sun sets West and the birds fly South
Gm              Dm          D#           F7
When you can't rest in a stranger's house
Gm            Dm               D#   A#  F 
When you can taste it in your mouth
       Gm       C7        Cm7         F7
Well I won't, I won't be there that day

Whe you're heading north but you're looking east
Searching for that missing puzzle piece
You're trying to force the famine to feast
But I won't, I won't be there that day

Chorus:
A#           F               Cm    Gm  F 
So come on, come on throw it all away
A#   F                  Cm
Save your heart for a rainy day
     Gm    Dm         D#            D#m
For noone knows the price you'll pay
       A#       F         D#         A#
But I won't, I won't be there that day

When the tide rolls in and your luck runs out
When it's sink or swim, when it's drink or drown
You can rest assured, you can have no doubts
That I won't, I won't be there that day

Chorus

   C7       Cm7        A#
I won't be there that day
