[Intro] D D [Verse 1] D A You're on the phone with your girlfrien, 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 Shes 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 [Bridge] D A Em G 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 And I know your favorite songs G And you tell me about 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
