Imagine a 13 year old kid touring with the likes of B.B. King and John Lee Hooker, shredding his guitar and singing the blues with raw emotion from his heart. Smokin' Joe Bonamassa has played guitar since a young child and only gets better as the years go by. I love the beat in his song, So, It's Like That, it shows his bluesy guitar and voice, and has inspired me to write my own lyrics for his song, So, It's Like That, about pain and despair of lost love. ~ and they go like this ~ I had the feeling, that everything with us, was okay but your unkind words, make our love, cold gray so, it's like that . . . so, it's like that you broke my heart- break, break it, just like that I am way beyond, shattered, and singing the blues drowning my pain, and despair, with drugs and booze so, it's like that . . . so, it's like that you broke my heart- break, break it, just like that yeah, yeah (guitar blues interlude) You kicked my faith, and love, into the garbage, and smashed it I was a fool to love, and trust, a hypocrite so, it's like that . . . so, it's like that you broke my heart- break, break it, just like that so, it's like that . . . so, it's like that you broke my heart- break, break it, just like that yeah, yeah
