Biografía:
It’s been a long and dusty, winding road for Austin singer/songwriter Guy Forsyth that’s lead to a recent surge in praise over his dazzling live shows and his rich Americana roots sound. Forsyth (vocals, acoustic, electric, & slide guitar, harmonica, ukulele, singing saw), along with Will Landin (bass/tuba) and Rob Hooper (drums/Cajon), bring a unique mixture of styles such as folk, rock, country, and Tin Pan Alley to create a sound that’s as heterogeneous, raw and compelling as America itself.

D G D
I only want the things that matter
D G A
I only want the things that you can share
D D/F#
Don't give me diamond rings
G D
All those so called finer things
D A D
They don't matter when they are not there
D G D
I don't need more clothes if I'm not freezing
D G A
And I don't need a love that I can't feel
D D/F#
I can't use a pretty lie
G D
Just to help me pass my time
D A D
Love only matters when it's real
D G D
I met a man who made a million dollars
D G A
Built himself a mansion up on high
D D/F#
He worked hard every day
G D
‘Til his strength passed him away
D A D
Now he sits and watches lovers pass him by
D G D
I gave my girl a watch that shined with diamonds
D G A
Prettiest watch you would ever find
D D/F#
She left it in the drawer
G D
When she walked right out my door
D A D
Turns out all she needed was my time
D G D
I know you can tell I'm not a rich man
D G A
I expect you know I'm not a rich man's son
D D/F#
But you should run and play
G D
Gather roses while you may
D A D
Can't buy your time back when you’re done
