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.

Song: Deathbed
Artist: Relient k
Album: Five Score And Seven Years Ago
F
I can smell the death on the sheets
F
Covering me
F F/G C
I can't believe this is the end
C F
But this is my deathbed
G Am
I lie here alone
C F
If I close my eyes tonight
G C
I know I'll be home
C G
The year was nineteen forty one
Bb
I was eight years old and
F
Far, far too young
C
To know that the stories
G
Of battles and glory
Bb
Was a tale a kind mother
F
Made up for her son
You see
C G
Dad was a traveling preacher
Bb F
Teaching the words of the Teacher
C
My mother had sworn he
G
Went off to the war
Bb
And died there with honor
F
Somewhere on a beach there
Am Ab
But he left once to never return
C/G D/F#
Which taught me that I should unlearn
F C
Whatever I thought a father should be
Eb
I abandoned that thought
D/F#
Like he abandoned me
D A/C#
By forty seven I was fourteen
C G
I'd acquired a taste for liquor and nicotine
Bb D/A
I smoked until I threw up
A
Yet I still lit 'em up
Ab G
For thirty more years
D
Like a machine
F C
So right there you have it
F C
That one filthy habit
F/D C G
Is what got me where I am today
F
I can smell the death on the sheets
Covering me
F/G C G
I can't believe this is the end
F
I can hear those sad memories
Still haunting me
So many things
F/G C G
I'd do again
C F
But this is my deathbed
G Am
I lie here alone
C F
If I close my eyes tonight
G C
I know I'll be home
C G
I got married on my twenty first
Bb F
Eight months before my wife would give birth
C G
It's easier to be sure you love someone
Bb F
When her father inquires with the barrel of a gun
Am E/Ab
The union was far from harmonious
C/G D/F#
No two people could have been more alone than us
F C
The years would go by and she'd love someone else
Eb D/F#
And I realized I hadn't been loved yet myself
D A
From there it's your typical spiel
C
Yeah if life was a highway
G
I was drunk at the wheel
Bb
I was seeing the loose ends
D/A
All fall apart
A Ab G
Yeah I swear I was destined to fail
F# D
And fail from the start
F C
I bowled about six times a week
F C
The bottle of Beam kept the memories from me
F C
The marriage had taken a seven-ten split
F/D C G
And along with my pride the ex-wife took the kids
F
I can smell the death on the sheets
Covering me
F/G C G
I can't believe this is the end
F
I can hear those sad memories
Still haunting me
So many things
F/G C G
I'd do again
C F
But this is my deathbed
G Am
I lie here alone
C F
If I close my eyes tonight
G C
I know I'll be home
C
I was so scared of Jesus
G/D
But He sought me out
Bb
Like the cancer in my lungs
F
That's killing me now
C
And I've given up hope
G/D
On the days I have left
Bb
But I cling to the hope
F
Of my life in the next
Am
Then Jesus showed up
E/Ab
Said, "Before we go up
C/G D/F#
I thought that we might reminisce
F
See one night in your life
C
When you turned out the light
Eb D
You asked for and prayed for my forgiveness"
D
You cried wolf
Bm A
The tears they soaked your fur
G Em
The blood dripped from your fangs
D A
You said, "What have I done?"
Em
You loved that Lamb
D Bm
With every sinful bone
A
And there you wept alone
G Em A
Your heart was so contrite
Em D G
You said, "Jesus, please forgive me of my crimes
Em D G
Sanctify this withered heart of mine
Em D G
Stay with me until my life is through
Em D G
And on that day please take me home with you"
G
I can smell the death on the sheets
Covering me
D A
I can't believe this is the end
G
I can hear You whisper to me,
"It's time to leave
G/Bb D A
You'll never be lonely again"
D G
But this was my deathbed
A Bm
I died there alone
D G
When I closed my eyes tonight
A G/D D
You carried me home
During the instrumental, its all : G D
[Jon Foreman of Switchfoot sings]
D F#/D
I am the Way
Bm
Follow Me
G A
And take My hand
D F#/D
And I am the Truth
Bm A G
Embrace Me and you'll understand

And I am the Light
C G
And for Me you'll live again
G A Bm
For I am Love
G A Bm
I am Love
D/F# G G A D
I, I am Love
That's it...please rate!!
