Intro   G  D  Em  Bm  G  D  Em7  G

         D               Em7    D   G
I looked into my mornin` mirror
       D                       Em            Bm7              Cmaj7  Am7   D
And it revealed some things to me that I had not been able to see........
                           Am7            D
I saw someone that I`m not sure I want to be
                         Am7             D6  C
An empty lonely face was starin` back at me
            D               G   Em  C
All and all I would have to say
            D             G     F  C  G
It`s been a rather dismal day

         D                Em7    D7  G
The afternoon was slow in coming
         D               Em               Bm7                  Cmaj7 Am7  D
I drug myself outside to face that people that I knew would be there.....
                                Am7            D
And though they walked along pretending not to care
                             Am7                 D      C
I knew behind my back they`d point and laugh and stare
            D               G    Em  C
All and all I would have to say
            D             G7   C   G  D  Em  D/F#  G  D/F#  Em7  D  G
It`s been a rather dismal day

            D                 Em7     D7  G
And now the evenings shadow`s falling
             D             Em                Bm7                 Cmaj7  Am7  D
I guess it`s best I lay my hopes to rest for no one`s calling my name......
                        Am7               D
I sit and wait behind a door that`s never knocked on
                          Am7                       D  C
I live in silence like my phone that`s never talked on

            D            G       Em  C
All and all I would have to say
            D             Em7  C
It`s been a rather dismal day
            D               G    Em7  C
All and all I would have to say
            D             G6    C
It`s been a rather dismal day
            D               Em7  C
All and all I would have to say
            D             G7     C   G
It`s been a rather dismal day.........

Bread chords for Dismal day

About this song

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.`
