I might have told you this before vs i might have tell you this before

The correct phrase is 'I might have told you this before.' The verb 'told' should be used in its past participle form after 'might have.' The incorrect phrase, 'I might have tell you this before', uses the base form of the verb 'tell,' which is incorrect in this context.
