E       
Once I read a book 
G
And this is what it said 
A                    
If your music has a beat 
E                             
Then you're gonna wind up dead 
                                    G
It doesn't really matter if it's Christian or not
        A                                     E
If it's syncopated rhythm then your soul is gonna rot 
          E                     G      
And this book was called ?Ha You?re Gonna Burn 
        A                  E
And in the second chapter I went on to learn 

E         G
Taske two houseplants 
A              E
And put them to the test 
                             G
Set them both in front of speakers 
         A            E
And let the music do the rest
                        G
The first one you play Mozart
              A            E
Or something lovelqy like that 
                              G               A           
The second one you play that Petra Or that MegaDeth.
                                                   
Doesn't really matter what kind of rock it is. 

   E              G
So I took my two houseplants
       A                E
And I put them to the test 
                             G
Set them both in front of speakers 
    A                E
To let the music do the rest 
              G
I powered up my Pioneers 
A                 E
To let the music roar 
    E               G
But twenty minutes later 
      A             E
Someone's knocking at my door 

E
I opened up my door 

G
And there my neighbor stood 
A
He said, Man I'd like to get some sleep
E
If you think I could

   E                  G
I said, Man, can't you see here 
                A                   E
I've got this moral dilemma that I got to get clear 
            E
He said, What kind of moral dilemma 
            G                   
Could you have at this time of night 
            A
That could make me so angry 
                      E 
That I just want to fight 


        E                              G
So I pointed to the page in that open book 
             A
That had a picture of a potted plant 
                        E
And I said, Go have a look

And he read 


E         G
Take two houseplants 
A              E
And put them to the test 
                             G
Set them both in front of speakers 
         A            E
And let the music do the rest
                        G
The first one you play Mozart
              A            E
Or something lovely like that 
                              G               A           
The second one you play that Petra Or that MegaDeth.
                                                   
Doesn't really matter what kind of rock it is. 

  E
First of all he said, 
G
That's Vager that you're playing 
A
I've never heard of Petra 
E
And isn't megaDeth all dead 

E             G                     A
And secondly, emphatically, He asked me, 
                          G
"What's the sense of hanging out with houseplants when, hey,
         A                E
I live right across the fence


And I thought to myself 
You know, that's a good point 

E                 G
So I took my two houseplants, and 
A                E
I put them both back outside 
E               G
And me and my neighbor 
       A                  E
Well, we went out for a drive 

E
We talked about all the things 
G                    
That really matter most 
A                       
Like life and love and happiness 
E                  
And then the Holy Ghost 


     E           G
And now my two houseplants 
      A              E
They sit out in the sun 
    E           G
But as for my neighbor 
           A              E
Well our friendship has become 
    E             G
A meaningful relationship 
         A                  E
That's headed straight to heavenn 
    E
But as for now
    G                                  A
We like to sit around and listen to Audio Adrenaline 
             E
Cranked to eleven!
