Hearing what you are saying on your mate saying they are full of anger. BUT, thats because they play the blues! What do they expect? This song is ace. I listened to it constantly after breaking up with my girlfriend cos it represented all the anger i had built up about the situation - how can someone so close change all of a sudden and totally mess with your head having given you such good times in the past. It feels as though they have been so ruthless and showing no emotion over it - or at least thats how it feels when you are on the receiving end. I love the line 'where'd you learn to shoot your gun so straight?'. That is the perfect way of summing up how a loved one changes when they dump you and you wonder how they can be so heartless. Its obviously a metophorical stance, they don't literally shoot you, but its about the damage that they have inflicted upon you.
