full lyrics:


I passed a patch of wild zinnia

while I was a comin' up to see ya

my Chandelier Sheila

my Sheila Chandelier

they was a doin' tantra yoga there

bending in the mist-dewed mornin' air

and I thought you'd like a bouquet

but collect I did not dare


because the message sent

by such a selfish precedent

would not well compliment the vibe

that I have come here to convey

even down dog droopin' daisies

deserve better than be plucked away


and I'm not knockin' knuckles curled

offerin' fistfuls of a world

that's neither mine to conquer nor divide

I'm knockin', Sheila Chandelier

just a checkin'

if you'll join me

on my rosie garden ride


would that thrill ya

my Chandelier Sheila

would it dear

my Sheila Chandelier

would that thrill ya

my Chandelier Sheila

would it dear

my Sheila Chandelier


I passed a trail

while traipsin' here

bends into trees

then disappears

I heard word it cuts back 

to quite a crow's nest kinda view


then for a moment paused and thought

you'd like a well-reconned review

whether it was a righteous spot

worth gettin' to with you


but upon thinking

venture I did not

nary a halfa step

on down that winding wooded way


because the message sent

by such an effort of extent

would not well compliment the vibe

that I have come here to convey


the journey's where the joy of livin' lay


and I'm not sacrilegin' here

with promises of passage clear

each pair of feet

must their own missteps stray


I'm knockin' Sheila Chandelier

just a checkin'

if you're the type

who likes to find out

along the way


would that thrill ya

my Chandelier Sheila

would it dear

my Sheila Chandelier

would that thrill ya

my Chandelier Sheila

would it dear

my Sheila Chandelier
