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.

Tuning: Capo 1
Verse 1: C And I've collected all these thoughts Am And I'm dying just to lose them F And if your words are true or not G I'll die trying to prove them CF But I'll just have to accept Am That my mind is so inept G And the only thing that's left
For me to do is to trust you
Pre-Chorus: CG Convince me F Because I really need your help CG Oh convince me F Because I can't see this for myself
Chorus: C I'll put the emphasis on the evidence FG Begging for the proof FGC Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
Verse 2: C This is so unnerving Am I know you've never lied to me before F but the things you're telling me G I can't yet believe yet can't ignore CF But I'll just have to accept Am That my mind is so inept G And the only thing that's left
For me to do is to trust you
Chorus: C Put the emphasis on the evidence GF Begging for the proof CFCG Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth C Attempt to place our lives into your hands GF Confide in what you'll do CF Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
Bridge: C It's a world full of cynics Am Who say to stay alive in it GF You gotta stick with what you know C But the soul is always aching Am For the heart to start taking GFC A chance by letting go CG So let go CGC Let go
Chorus: FGCG Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth C Attempt to place our lives into your hands GF Confide in what you'll do FG Cause sometimes when you're trying to sleep FC And all your doubts and your faith don't agree its cause FGC Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
