Biography:
Relient K is an American rock band formed in 1998 in Canton, Ohio by Matt Thiessen (lead vocals, guitar, piano), Brian Pittman (bass), and Matthew Hoopes (guitar, backing vocals), during the band's junior year in high school and their time at Malone College. The band is named after guitarist Hoopes' automobile, a Plymouth Reliant K car, with the spelling intentionally altered to avoid trademark infringement over the Reliant name.
In 2000, Dave Douglas replaced Stephen Cushman on drums.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Chords are a tad different than standard (mostly just the Bm):
G Bm Em D/F# C
e|---3----3----3----3----3----|
B|---3----3----3----3----3----|
G|---0----2----0----2----0----|
D|---0----x----2----0----2----|
A|---2----2----2----0----3----|
E|---3---------0----2---------|
This style of playing in the key of G should be fairly well known, though, but it's for
who don't know it. :P
Verse 1:
G Bm
I'll admit to who I am
Em D/F#
The day I come to understand
C
I haven't got a clue
C G D/F#* Em D/F#*
Been searching for a few years now
Verse 2:
G Bm
Well if I don't repeat myself
Em D/F#
Then I'll change into someone else
C
Well I don't quite know who
C
Been searching for a few years now
Chorus:
C
I'm over it
D/F#
Yeah behind me now
Em G
I'm just over it
C
Over it
D/F#
Yeah I'm finding out
Em G
I'm just over it
C D/F#
No, I don't know what's over just yet
Em G C
But I won't go slow and time can let the mind forget
D/F#* G
Don't tell me you don't know
D/F#* Em
Already
D/F#* G
(Don't tell me you let go
D/F#* Em
Already)
Verse 3:
G Bm
I'll protect your universe
Em D/F#
Or make a mess to make it worse
C
Time will only tell
C
You and no one else so
Bridge:
C D/F#
You say you made up your mind and you've finally decided
Em
But those that helped you choose
C D/F# Em C
Haven't the slightest clue as to the magnitude of what you're about to lose
Verse 4:
G Bm
I'm guarded and therefore I can endure
Em
A little bit more
D/F#
Just a little bit more
C
Than some people would
C
If I'm not misunderstood
G Bm
It's still an attempt to be egoless while self-assured
Em D/F#
If I'm still unsure that I'm pretty sure
C
That I am pretty good
C
God, you know I'm good and
Side-notes:
- D/F# can be interchanged with a regular D major chord except for the starred ones
sounds better, lol)
- Every chord should be around the place that they're actually played except for the
in the chorus because there's no space :
- The parts of verses where there's two lines of C's can be replaced with:
C Em
C D/F#
Your choice on which you prefer. However, the verse 1 seems to be just C, at least.
- The only time you actually fully play the chorus is at the end. The first time into
chorus (after verse 2), you end after the first "Already," playing D/F# to go into the G
the third verse.
The second time into the chorus (after verse 3), you play/sing the "Don't tell me you
go," but you don't sing the following "Already" and instead play D/F# then C to go into
Bridge.
