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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Interlude: Bb F Cm Eb

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

You belong with me
Bb
Standing by and waiting at your back door 
F                                        Cm
All this time how could you not know, baby 
                Eb                   Bb
You belong with me, you belong with me 
                F
You belong with me 
                              Cm
Have you ever thought just maybe
                Eb                   Bb
You belong with me, you belong with me
