Intro: Ab

Verse:
Ab                                                 Eb
You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset
                                         Bbm
She's going off about something that you said 
                                       Db
'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do
Ab                                       Eb
I'm in the room it's a typical Tuesday night 
                                                Bbm
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like 
                                      Db
And she'll never know your story like I do 

Pre-Chorus:
    Bbm                      Db
But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts 
Ab                       Eb
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers 
Bbm                              Db
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
                Eb
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time 

Chorus:
             Ab
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you 
Eb                                     Bbm
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
                Db                   Ab
You belong with me, you belong with me

Verse:
Ab                                               Eb
Walkin' the streets with you and your worn out jeans 
                                              Bbm
I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be 
                                        Db
Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself 
Hey isn't this easy 

Verse:
    Ab                                                 Eb
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
                                                   Bbm
I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down 
You say you're fine, I know you better then that 
Db
Hey whatcha doing with a girl like that 

Pre-Chorus:
Bbm                    Db
She wears high heels, I wear sneakers 
Ab                      Eb
Shes cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers 
Bbm                     Db
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
                Eb 
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time 

Chorus:
             Ab
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you 
Eb                                     Bbm
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
                Db
You belong with me
Ab
Standing by and waiting at your back door 
Eb                                        Bbm
All this time how could you not know, baby 
                Db
You belong with me, you belong with me 

Interlude: Ab Eb Bbm Db

Bridge:
                  Bbm
Oh I remember you drivin' to my house
       Db
In the middle of the night 
        Ab
I'm the one who makes you laugh 
         Eb
When you know you're about to cry 
      Bbm
And I know your favorite songs 
        Db
And you tell me about your dreams 
        Ab
Think I know where you belong 
        Eb
Think I know it's with me

Verse:
          Ab
Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you 
Eb                                     Bbm
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
                Db
You belong with me
Ab
Standing by and waiting at your back door 
Eb                                        Bbm
All this time how could you not know, baby 
                Db                   Ab
You belong with me, you belong with me 
                Eb
You belong with me 
                              Bbm
Have you ever thought just maybe
                Db                   Ab
You belong with me, you belong with me
