Intro  G+G D MajorD E minorEm B minorBm G+G D MajorD E minor 7Em7 G+G

     D MajorD        E minor 7Em7  D MajorD  G+G
I looked into my mornin` mirror
    D MajorD            E minorEm      Bm7Bm7       Cmaj7Cmaj7 Am7Am7  D MajorD
And it revealed some things to me that I had not been able to see........
              Am7Am7      D MajorD
I saw someone that I`m not sure I want to be
             Am7Am7       D6D6 C majorC
An empty lonely face was starin` back at me
      D MajorD        G+G  E minorEm C majorC
All and all I would have to say
      D MajorD       G+G   FF C majorC G+G
It`s been a rather dismal day

     D MajorD        E minor 7Em7  D7D7 G+G
The afternoon was slow in coming
     D MajorD        E minorEm        Bm7Bm7         Cmaj7Cmaj7 Am7Am7 D MajorD
I drug myself outside to face that people that I knew would be there.....
                Am7Am7      D MajorD
And though they walked along pretending not to care
               Am7Am7         D MajorD   C majorC
I knew behind my back they`d point and laugh and stare
      D MajorD        G+G  E minorEm C majorC
All and all I would have to say
      D MajorD       G7G7  C majorC  G+G D MajorD E minorEm D/F#D/F# G+G D/F#D/F# E minor 7Em7 D MajorD G+G
It`s been a rather dismal day

      D MajorD         E minor 7Em7   D7D7 G+G
And now the evenings shadow`s falling
       D MajorD       E minorEm        Bm7Bm7         Cmaj7Cmaj7 Am7Am7 D MajorD
I guess it`s best I lay my hopes to rest for no one`s calling my name......
            Am7Am7        D MajorD
I sit and wait behind a door that`s never knocked on
             Am7Am7            D MajorD C majorC
I live in silence like my phone that`s never talked on

      D MajorD      G+G    E minorEm C majorC
All and all I would have to say
      D MajorD       E minor 7Em7 C majorC
It`s been a rather dismal day
      D MajorD        G+G  E minor 7Em7 C majorC
All and all I would have to say
      D MajorD       G6G6  C majorC
It`s been a rather dismal day
      D MajorD        E minor 7Em7 C majorC
All and all I would have to say
      D MajorD       G7G7   C majorC  G+G
It`s been a rather dismal day.........

Dismal Day chords

From the 1969 album titled Bread, the song Dismal Day. This was Bread´s first single, although it didn´t chart. David Gates, who wrote the song, says, `We thought that song would be a smash hit, but it didn´t do that well as a single. It was a good outlet for us to sing all those high harmonies, though.`
