OH MY DEAR LORD! Nobody has commented on such a fine piece of music that displays what Clapton plays and sings best. THE BLUES! What a performance on the unplugged album. This song kind of sounds like it could be from a Jack Daniels commercial. The backup singers really give the chorus more support. I play this song all the time on my guitar. It's great finger picking. Anyways on with the meaning. I think it's about how some people who you think are your friends are just using you for something you have and they don't.
