On the third day of Christmas my true love gave to me
three power chords
two tiny amps
and a cartridge in a bare tree
Sorry.
Anybody want to take the next verse?

Four months of lessons,
Three power chords,
Two tiny amps,
And a cartridge in a bare tree....

When my mind is free, you know a melody can move me
And when I'm feelin' blue, the guitar's comin' through to soothe me ~
five sets of strings...
Four months of lessons,
Three power chords,
Two tiny amps,
And a cartridge in a bare tree....

- John Frusciante
Seven concert tickets,
Six stomp pedals,
Five sets of strings,
Four months of lessons,
Three power chords,
Two tiny amps,
And a cartridge in a bare tree.

Nice song. :D
Perhaps, in honour of the thread starter, the line that originally goes "Five gold rings" could be sung as:
"Five old Rics..." :P
Since it is the day AFTER Christmas, here is an alternate (and more accurate) last line of Twas the Night Before Christmas:
And his family heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight,
My God the credit card bills are enormous,
I'll have to work all night!
Bah humbug!!!! :wink:
Chris, I don't think the world's ready for FIVE old Rics!
"A cheerful heart is good medicine."
Chris, I don't think the world's ready for FIVE old Rics!
Oh, I don't know..... you could form your own band. :wink:
Think of the choreography possibilities with a Lead Ric, A Rhythm Ric, a Bass Ric and a Singer Ric, all doing synchronised moves up front. Could be quite eye-popping. :shock:
