This sounds pretty good.  Itıs my first tab so please email me with any corrections.

Emphasize the four lowest strings more than the other two, but don't leave them out. 
  

E       
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 
                              G
It doesn't really matter if it's Christian or not
        A                                               E                               E G
If it's syncopated rhythm then your soul is gonna rot 

                                     G E                                 E G
And this book was called      "Ha! Your Gonna Burn" 
                                      G E
And in the second chapter      I went on to learn 

CHORUS:
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. 



(Play the same riff as the chorus)

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

I opened up my door 
And there my neighbor stood 
He said, "Man I'd like to get some sleep
If you think I could"

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

So I pointed to the page in that open book 
That had a picture of a potted plant 
And I said, "Go have a look."
And he read 

CHORUS
First of all he said, 
"That's Wagner that you're playing 
I've never heard of Petra 
And isn't MegaDeth all dead." 

And secondly, emphatically, He asked me, 
"What's the sense of hanging out with houseplants when, hey,
I live right across the fence." 
And I thought to myself 
You know, that's a good point 

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

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

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