Chords for ♥ "You Belong With Me" - Taylor Swift Guitar Lesson ♥

The whole [F#] time if you could see that I'm the one who understands [C#] you, been there all along so why can't [G#m] you see?
Hey, you belong [B] with me.
_ Hey, you [F#] belong with me.
[D] Hello Swifties!
Welcome back!
I hope you're all doing well.
Today's lesson is going to be You Belong With Me by Taylor Swift.
This is an old favorite and some of you know that this is a
[A] redone tutorial because my last one was kind of sketched.
It was really bad so we're just not
going to go back to that one.
So, brand new version, easier to [A] follow.
Let's go ahead and dive in.
Alright, so [D] first off you're going to need a capo here on the fourth fret and starting off we are
[Bm] going to make a [B] D major.
_ [F#] _
_ _ I always think that chord is so beautiful.
Then we're going to go ahead [G#m] and
move on to an A major.
_ [C#] _ _ _
_ We have an [G#m] E minor _ _ _ _ _ _ _ and last but not least a G major.
[B] _ _ _ _ _
Alright, so those [B] are all the chords you need to know in order to play [D#] this song.
Now if you need
some extra help, like I always say, don't fret everything is going to be [B] okay, though.
Just check
down below in the description box.
I have links to each set of chords more so you can study them up,
come on back, and learn how to play You Belong With Me.
Alright, on to what's probably the most exciting
part of this song, strumming.
Now there's so many different ways that you can strum the song, but I
like to do is my, you know, very original favorite, the down, down, up, up, down, up.
You guys know that I
just love this one so much.
It goes like [F#] this, down, down, up, up, down, up.
[Bm] The trick for this pattern is that
between those two up strums you're just going to swing your arm down, but you're not going to
strum.
So, I'll go a little bit [F#] slower. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bm] _ Now other ways that you can strum this song, you can just [F#] go
down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, up.
You can even do [E] all down strums because [G] it is a very fast.
_ _ You can even [A] do all down strums just because [Bm] it's a very, very fast piece.
So, you [F#] can just go, _ _ _
_ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ _
_ I think it's like eight down strums per chord.
So, it's like one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
eight.
Oh no, it's sixteen.
It's double that.
So, it's sixteen down strums per [G] chord.
So, it would go
[F#] one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
One, two, three, four, five, six, [C#] seven, eight.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. _
_ _ [G#m] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ All right.
[G] So, those are just a few examples of strumming patterns that you can use.
Feel free to
make up your own.
[B] I feel like there's a lot of room for creativity in this song.
So, that's it
for chords and for strumming.
So, now we're [G#] going to go ahead and get into the song.
So, let's go ahead
and get started. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G#m] _ _ _ Make sure you guys are singing with me.
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#] You're on the phone with your girlfriend.
She's [C#] us
She's going on about something that [G#m] you said.
Is she done?
Get your [B] humor like I do. _
_ _ _ _ [F#] I'm in the room.
It's
typical [C#] Tuesday night.
Listening to the kind of music she [G#m] doesn't like.
And she'll never know you're
[B] in the _ _ _
_ _ _ [G#m] room.
She wears short skirts.
[B] I wear t [G#]-shirts.
She's dear captain [C#] and I'm on the blade [G#m] shirts.
Dreaming about the day [B] we're
waking up and finally [C#] what you're looking for has been here the [F#] whole time.
If you can see that I _
_ understand [C#] you been here all along so why [G#m] can't you see _ you belong [B] with me. _ _
Yeah, you belong [F#] with me. _ _ _
_ _ _ [C#] We're gonna go straight into the bridge.
So, you have an interlude that goes one time
around [G#m] like this. _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
_ I [G#m] remember you driving to my house in the middle of the [F#] night.
I'm the one who makes you [C#] laugh
when you know you're about to [G#m] cry.
And then you're your favorite songs and you tell me about your dreams.
[F#] I think I know where you belong.
[C#] I think I know it's within _ me.
[C#m] _ _ _
Breathe.
[F#] Can't you see that I'm the one who
understands [C#] you've been here all along so why [G#m] can't you see _ _ you [B] belong with me. _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#] Standing by _ _ that [C#] door all the time.
How could you not [G#m] know baby.
_ _ Yeah, you belong [B] with me.
_ Yeah, you belong [F#] with me. _ _
You belong [C#] with me.
_ Have you ever thought just [G#m] maybe.
_ _ Yeah, you belong [B] with me. _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ All _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] right, so that is how you play You Belong With Me.
I hope that you guys enjoyed this
tutorial.
