MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB (as recorded by Stevie Ray Vaugh)
Original music by George "Buddy" Guy
I haven t figured out the solo, but this is the intro and the
verses.
~ = whammy bar tremelo
h = hammer on for next note
p = pull off for next note
s = slide up to next note
(n) = optional fingered note
Intro (Stevie throws in grace notes but this is the basic structure):

Life By The Drop
It took this song to make me find my forgotten 12-string Eko which was deep
buried in a closet for quite some time. I had it serviced and sat down to
learn the song. Here are the results:
Fist, the general outline. The intro and a couple more licks are after it.
|A |E7 |F#min |D7

|Hello there |my old friend, |not so long ago it was |still the end

|that s how it happened living |life by the |drop |
^---- only 2/4 here
|Up and down the road in our |worn out shoes
|talking about good things and |singing the blues
|you went your way and |I stayed behind
|we both knew it was just a |matter of time
|living a dream as |though you re on top
|my mind is aching |Lord it won t stop
|that s how it happens living |life by the |drop / / /| / / / /|
|No waste of time we |??...?? the day
|turning up the past, there s no |easier way
|time s been between us a |means to an end (???)
|God, it s good to be here, walking |together my friend
|living a dream |

For the D7 he s using both xx0212 and xx7575 (EADGBE)
For the E7, I m not sure, but probably the x7675x.
That s it. There are a couple of licks missing but with a little messing
around with the chords you ll be able to get them.
Have fun.
~From: Paul D
~Subject: SRV s "Life By the Drop"...
The intro is just some A pentatonic stuff:
(this may not be exact)

Then there s this thing that I call "standard blues riff" (because I m
basically musically illiterate) throughout the verses:
A E F#m D

Here s the chorus part ("Livin your dreams, wo you on top."):
