[Intro]
A# F 2x
[Verse]
A# F
You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset
Gm
She's going off about something that you said
A#
'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do
F
I'm in the room it's a typical Tuesday night
Gm
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
A#
And she'll never know your story like I do
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm A#
But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts
F C
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Gm A#
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
C
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
[Chorus]
F
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
C Gm
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
A#~ F
You belong with me, you belong with me
[Verse]
F C
Walkin' the streets with you and your worn out jeans
Gm
I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
A#
Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself
Hey isn't this easy
F C
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
Gm
I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down
You say you're fine, I know you better then that
A#
Hey whatcha doing with a girl like that
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm A#
She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
F C
Shes cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Gm A#
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
C
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
[Chorus]
F
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
C Gm
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
A#
You belong with me
F
Standing by and waiting at your back door
C Gm
All this time how could you not know, baby
A#
You belong with me, you belong with me
[Interlude]
F C Gm A#
[Bridge]
Gm
Oh I remember you drivin' to my house
A#
In the middle of the night
F
I'm the one who makes you laugh
C
When you know you're about to cry
Gm
And I know your favorite songs
A#
And you tell me about your dreams
F
Think I know where you belong
C
Think I know it's with me
[Chorus]
F
Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you
C Gm
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
A#
You belong with me
F
Standing by and waiting at your back door
C Gm
All this time how could you not know, baby
A# F
You belong with me, you belong with me
C
You belong with me
Gm
Have you ever thought just maybe
A# F
You belong with me, you belong with me
