(e)very (g)ood (b)oy (d)oes (f)ine (on the line).
the rhyme is what helps you remember its association with notes on the line.
f | a | c | e | is typically shown with spaces, since those notes are located in the space between the lines.
*for whatever reason, the script here won't allow me to place the letters in space in their correct position, but this is the scale:
------------------------F---------------------- E -------------------D--------------------------- C ---------------B------------------------------- A ----------G------------------------------------ F -----E----------------------------------------
