[Lyrics]
[Verse 1]
Hello there, my old friend
Not so long ago, it was 'till the end
We played out side, in the pourin' rain
On our way up the road, we started over again
[Chorus]
Livin' the dream, of you on top
My mind is achin', and lord it wont stop
That's how it's happened, livin'
Life by the drop
[Verse 2]
Up and down that road, in our worn out shoes
Talkin' 'bout good things, and singin' the blues
You went your way, and I stayed behind
We both knew, it was just a matter of time
[Chorus]
Livin' the dream, of you on top
My mind is achin', and lord it wont stop
That's how it's happened, livin'
Life by the drop
[Verse 3]
No waste of time, we're allowed today
Churnin' up the past, there's no easier way
Times been between us, a means to an end
God, It's good to be here, walkin' together my friend
[Outro]
Livin' the dream!
My mind stoped achin'!
That's how it happened livin'
Life by the drop
That's how it happened livin'
Life by the drop
That's how it happened livin'
Life by the drop

Hello there my old friend
Not so long ago it was till the end
We played outside in the pourin' rain
On our way up the road we started over again
You're livin' out dreams of you on top
My mind is achin' oh lord it won't stop
that's how it happened livin' life by the drop
Up and down the road in our worn out shoes
Talkin' 'bout good things and singin' the blues
You went your way and I stayed behind
We both knew it was just a matter or time
You're livin' out dreams of you on top
My mind is achin' oh lord it won't stop
that's how it happened life by the drop
No waste of time we're allowed today
Churnin' up the past, there's no easier way
Times been between us,a means to a end
God its good to be here walkin' together my friend
Livin' our dreams
My mind stoped achin'
that's how it happened livin' life by the drop

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)
E-|------------------------------------------------------|
B-|------------------------------------------------------|

D-|------0h2---0h2p0------------2--0h2----0h2p0----------|
A-|--0h3-------------3p0------------------------3--0-----|
E-|------------------------------------------------------|
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
E-|-------------------------------------------2-2---2-2-----------------------|
B-|-------------------------------------------2-2---2-2-----------------------|

E-|-------------------0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0---2-2--2-2---2-2-----------------------|
Here's the chorus part ("Livin' your dreams, wo' you on top."):
(there's some words at the bottom to help keep up)
E-|------2-2---2-2--------------------------2-2---2-2-------------------------|
B-|------2-2---2-2--------------------------2-2---2-2-------------------------|

version 5
12 String acoustic, Standard tuning.
This song is pretty easy, especially for SRV. Listen to the song in order to get
the timing down, as the intro and third chorus are the hardest parts of the song.

Hello there my old friend
Not so long ago it was till the end
We played outside in the pourin' rain
On our way up the road we started over again
You're livin' out dreams of you on top
My mind is achin' oh lord it won't stop
that's how it happened livin' life by the drop
Up and down the road in our worn out shoes
Talkin' 'bout good things and singin' the blues
You went your way and I stayed behind
We both knew it was just a matter or time
You're livin' out dreams of you on top
My mind is achin' oh lord it won't stop
that's how it happened life by the drop
No waste of time we're allowed today
Churnin' up the past, there's no easier way
Times been between us,a means to a end
God its good to be here walkin' together my friend
Livin' our dreams
My mind stoped achin'
that's how it happened livin' life by the drop
