Once I read a book
G  
And this is what it said
A                                                    E  
If your music has a beat
                                                                             E  
Then you're gonna wind up dead
             E                                                                              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! Your Gonna Burn"
                                  A                                                                    E  
And in the second chapter              I went on to learn
E                 G  
Take two houseplants
          A                                    E  
And put them to the test
                        E                                                    G  
Set them both in front of speakers
                                     A                              E  
And let the music do the rest
          E                                              G  
The first one you play Mozart
                        A                                         E  
Or something lovely like that
          E                                                                    G                                                    A                            E  
The second one you play that Petra Or that MegaDeth.
                                                                                                                                        E  
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
                             E                                            G  
Set them both in front of speakers
                                  A                              E  
To let the music do the rest
          E                                 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
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
                        E                                                    G  
Set them both in front of speakers
                                     A                              E  
And let the music do the rest
          E                                              G  
The first one you play Mozart
                        A                                         E  
Or something lovely like that
          E                                                                    G                                                    A                            E  
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 Vagner 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,
                                     E                                                                  G  
"What's the sense of hanging out with houseplants when, hey,
                        A                                         E  
I live right across the fence."
(mute)
                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                            G  
We talked about all the things
                     A                              E  
That really matter most
                  E                                         G  
Like life and love and happiness
             A                                    E  
And then the Holy Ghost
E                 G                 A                 E  
             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 heaven
          E  
But as for now
          G                                                                                         A  
We like to sit around and listen to Audio Adrenaline
                                  E  
Cranked to eleven!
