verse
C G
i’m a dweller on the threshold and i’m waiting at the door
C G
and i’m standing in the darkness i don’t want to wait no more
Em C G
i have seen without perceiving i have been another man
Em C G
let me pierce the realm of glamour so i know just what i Am

C G
i’m a dweller on the threshold and i’m waiting at the door
C G
and i’m standing in the darkness i don’t want to wait no more
Em C G
feel the angel of the presence in the mighty crystal fire
Em C G
lift me up consume my darkness let me travel even higher

Em C G
i’m a dweller on the threshold as i cross the burning ground
Em C G
let me go down to the water watch the great illusion drown

C G
i’m a dweller on the threshold and i’m waiting at the door
C G
and i’m standing in the darkness i don’t want to wait no more

instrumental part

C G Em G Em C G Em C G

Em C G
i’m gonna turn and face the music the music of the spheres
Em C G
lift me up consume my darkness when the midnight disappears
Em C G
i will walk out of the darkness and i’ll walk into the light
Em C G
and i’ll sing the song of ages and the dawn will end the night

C G
i’m a dweller on the threshold and i’m waiting at the door
C G
and i’m standing in the darkness i don’t want to wait no more
C G
i’m a dweller on the threshold and i cross some burning ground
C G
and i’ll go down to the water let the great illusion drown
C G
i’m a dweller on the threshold and i’m waiting at the door
C G
and i’m standing in the darkness i don’t want to wait no more
C G
i’m a dweller on the threshold dweller on the threshold
C
i’m a dweller on the threshold
