Tonight we got a special guest a young man from' (where ya from') He's playin' a new song, here we go. Thanks Smooth Steve. Hey this is a song about a book I read once about the "so called" apparent evils of Rock and Roll. And I wrote this little song about it. Uh, I guess I'd just like to thank, uh, thank you all for commin' out and sing this song tonight. Here it goes. I'm sorry but your gonna have to listen to the song to get the strumming pattern cuz I cant show you here.

^EOnce I read a book,^E and thi^Gs is what it said, ^G "If y^Aour music has a ^Abea^Et, then your ^Egonna wind up dead. It ^Edoesn't really matter if its ^GChristian or not, If its s^Ayncopated rhythm then your so^Aul is gonna rot." E(slide)A A(slide)E And this book was called "AH YOUR GONNA BURN" E(slide)A A(slide)E E(silence)E And in the second chapter, I went on to learn. ^ETake two ^Ghouseplants and ^Aput 'em to the ^Etest, Set 'em ^Eboth in front of ^Gspeakers and let the ^Amusic do the rest. ^E The f^Eirst one you play ^GMozart or so^Amethin' lovely like t^Ehat, The ^Esecond one you play that ^GPetra and that ^AMegadeath. ^E (quad. strum E) Doesn't really matter what kind of rock it is. So I t^Eook my two ^Ghouseplants and I pre^Asented them to the ^Etest.

Set 'em ^Eboth in front of s^Gpeakers and let the^A music do the^E rest. I ^Epowered up my ^GPioneers and ^Alet the music roar^E. E G A E (quad. strum E) But twenty minutes later someone's knocking at my door. (thump your guitar if you have an acoustic) E EE E G I opened up my door, and there my neighbour stood. He said, &^Aquot;Man I'd like to get some s^Eleep; if ya really think I

could."

I said, &^Equot;Man, can't^G you see here I g^Aot a moral dilemma that I have G^Eotta get clear." He said, &^Equot;What kinda moral dilemma could you ha^Gve at this time of Night that would m^Aake me so angry that I^E just wanna fight'" (here's a tip, save you a couplea bux, don't break anything just imagine breaking something.) Sorry, so I p^Eointed to a page,^G in that open book, it had a ^Apicture of A potted plant and I said, ^E "go have a look." And he read' ^ETake two h^Gouse plants and ^Aput em' to the ^Etest, Set em' ^Eboth in front of ^Gspeakers and let the^A music do the^E rest. The ^Efirst one you play ^GMozart or som^Aething lovely like t^Ehat, The ^Esecond one you play that ^GPetra and that ^AMegadeath. ^E

Doesn't really matter what kind of rock it is. E-------------------------------------------------0-|&#61663-------|This may sound B------------------0----0---0---3----------2------0-|&#61663-------|wrong or maybe G-------1----1---1---0----0----------0---0---3-4--1-|&#61663-------| be wrong but D-2-2-2---2----2------------------0----0----------2-|&#61663-------|that's what it A-------------------------------------------------2-|&#61663-------|sounds like to E-------------------------------------------------0-|&#61663-------| me.

&^Equot;First of all," he said^G, "that's Vogner that your^A playin', I've never E E(silence)E heard of Petra and isn't Megadeath all dead'" And s^Eecondly and ^Gthatically he ^Aasked me what's the^E sense' Of ^Ehangin' out with ^Ghouseplants he said, "^Ahey I live right across the

e fence." And I thought to myself, you know that's a good point.

So I ^Etook my two ^Ghouseplants and I ^Aput em' both out^Eside, And ^Eme and my ^Gneighbour we ^Awent out for a ^Edrive.

We ^Etalked about ^Gall the things that ^Areally matter ^Emost. Like ^Elife and love and ^Ghappiness and ^Athen the Holy Ghost^E. (^ENaaaaah ^GNaaaaaah ^ANaaaaah ^ENaaaaah) So ^Enow my two ^Ghouseplants can ^Asit out in the ^Esun, And ^Eas for my ^Gneighbour well our ^Afriendship has ^Ebecome, A ^Emeaningful re^Glationship that's ^Aheaded strait for ^Eheaven. But ^Eas for now we ^Glike to sit around and listen to ^AAudio Adrenaline, E E!E!E!E!E!E!E! (just play hard until you get tired CRANKED TO ELEVEN!
