 DWELLER ON THE THRESHOLD - Van Morrison

 Tabbed by: Gavjones
 
 Tuning: Standard
 
 This is the tab of the version on the Best of Van Morrison album, you can
 figure out the strumming from the track. I think it sounds nicer with
 the G as a barre chord but it doesnt make a lot of difference.

 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

                                Em C                            G 
 I will walk out of the darkness  And I'll walk into the light
