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