Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Also, I know parts of this are weird to sing over (IE: the "I's" -

"get your humor like -I- do" and "know your story like -I- do" but the chords

aren't wrong, it's just the way the song is.

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset

 She's going off about something that you said

 'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do

I'm in the room it's a typical Tuesday night

 I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like

 And she'll never know your story like I do

 But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts

She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers

Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find

 That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

 If you could see that I'm the one who understands you

Been here all along, so why can't you see?

 You belong with me, you belong with me

Walkin' the streets with you and your worn out jeans

 I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be

 Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself

Hey isn't this easy

 And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town

 I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down

You say you're fine, I know you better then that

Hey whatcha doing with a girl like that

She wears high heels, I wear sneakers

Shes cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers

Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find

 That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

 If you could see that I'm the one who understands you

Been here all along, so why can't you see?

 You belong with me

Standing by and waiting at your back door

All this time how could you not know, baby

 You belong with me, you belong with me

 Oh I remember you drivin' to my house

 In the middle of the night

 I'm the one who makes you laugh

 When you know you're about to cry

 And I know your favorite songs

 And you tell me about your dreams

 Think I know where you belong

 Think I know it's with me

 Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you

Been here all along, so why can't you see?

 You belong with me

Standing by and waiting at your back door

All this time how could you not know, baby

 You belong with me, you belong with me

 You belong with me

 Have you ever thought just maybe

 You belong with me, you belong with me
