[Verse 1]
D                                                   A
You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset
                                         Em  
She's going off about something that you said
                                       G   
'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do
D                                        A   
I'm in the room, it's a typical Tuesday night
                                                Em 
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
                                      G   
And she'll never know your story like I do

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

[Chorus]
             D                                       
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
A                                     Em  
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
                G                   D 
You belong with me, you belong with me

[Instrumental]
   D

[Verse 2]
D                                               A   
Walkin' the streets with you and your worn out jeans
                                              Em
I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
                                        G   
Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself
Hey, isn't this easy
    D                                                  A  
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
                                                   Em  
I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down
You say you're fine, I know you better than that
G                                       
Hey, whatcha doing with a girl like that

[Pre-Chorus]
Em                    G              
She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
D                       A                   
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Em                              G               
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
                A                                        
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

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

[Instrumental]
D A Em G

[Bridge]
                   Em                 
Oh, I remember you drivin' to my house
       G                  
In the middle of the night
        D                      
I'm the one who makes you laugh
         A                       
When you know you're about to cry
  Em                      
I know your favorite songs
        G                        
And you tell me 'bout your dreams
        D                    
Think I know where you belong
        A                
Think I know it's with me

[Chorus]
          D                                       
Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you
A                                     Em  
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
                G 
You belong with me
D                                        
Standing by and waiting at your back door
A                                       Em
All this time how could you not know, baby
                G                   D 
You belong with me, you belong with me

[Outro]
                A 
You belong with me
                              Em
Have you ever thought just maybe
                G                   D 
You belong with me, you belong with me
