Intro: C

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Interlude: C G Dm F

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

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