B                  F#
You cut me down a tree
     E                 B
And brought it back to me
     F#                  E
And that's what made me see
B
Where I was going wrong

B                 F#
You put me on a shelf 
E                    B
And kept me for yourself 
      F#            E
I can only blame myself
                   B 
You can only blame me

E                    B 
And I could write a song
G#m              F# 
A hundred miles long
E                      B
Well that’s where I belong
                    F# 
And you belong with me
E                     B 
And I could write it down
G#m                 F# 
And spread it all around
E                      B 
Get lost and then get found
                    F#  B 
or swallowed in the sea 
B                F#
You put me on a line
E                   B 
And hung me out to dry
F#                       E 
And darling, that’s when I
               B 
decided to go see
B                  F# 
You cut me down to size
E                 B 
And opened up my eyes
F#          E 
Made me realize
                  B 
What I could not see
E                    B 
And I could write a book
G#m                       F# 
The one they’ll say that shook
E                      B 
The world and then it took
                     F# 
It took it back from me
E                      B 
And I could write it down
G#m                 F# 
And spread it all around
E                      B 
Get lost and then get found
                        F# 
And you’ll come back to me
      E               B 
Not swallowed in the sea

C#m   E   B   F#   (X 2)

C#m   E   B   F#
Ooohhhhh Aaahhhhh
C#m   E   B   F#
Ooohhhhh Aaahhhhh

E                    B 
And I could write a song
G#m              F# 
A hundred miles long
E                      B 
Well that’s where I belong
                    F# 
And you belong with me
E                          B 
The streets you’re walking on
G#m                F# 
A thousand houses long
        E               B 
Well, that’s where I belong
                    F# 
And you belong with me
          E             B 
Oh, what good is it to live
G#m                   F# 
With nothing left to give
E                   B 
Forget, but not forgive
                   F# 
Not loving all you see
           E                   B 
All the streets you’re walking on
G#m                F# 
A thousand houses long
        E               B 
Well, that’s where I belong
                    F# 
And you belong with me
      E               B 
Not swallowed in the sea
G#m             F# 
You belong with me
      E               B 
Not swallowed in the sea
G#m                   F#
Yeah, you belong with me
