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