The alternate G (with the asterisk *) sounds better when you are coming from the F, so
just keep your fingering and slide up 2 frets from F to G. I just think the fuller sound
works better for this song.
The way your heart beCats when I hGold you tCight
F  G* C  
The way you sigh when we kiss goodnight
F  G* C  
The way the wind blows through the trees
F  G* C  
Well hey, that's the way you belong to me
The way you waCrm me baby whGen I'm coCld
F  G* C  
The way you make me want you body and soul
F  G* C  
The way the rivers run to the sea
F  G* C  
Well hey, that's the way you belong to me
The way you Gsoothe me when DI'm in Gpain
GThe way you make the Cblood rush Din my Gveins
GThe way the Cwinds rush Dthrough the Gtrees
GWell hey, that's the Cway you Dbelong to Gme
When I lose Cfaith you Gtake my Chand
The way you make me Ffeel like GI'm a Cman
The way the Fsun belongGs to the Csea
Well hey, that's the Fway you beGlong to Cme
(Sax Solo)
The way you make me Gfeel like DI beGlong
And if I Ccould girl though I Dknow it'd be Gwrong
I’d lock you deep iCnside
till the Dlast rains fGall
And hide you from the CemptiDness of it Gall
Sometimes at Cnight I Glie aCwake
I pull you cFlose and feel each Gbreath you Ctake
The way the Frivers beGlong to the Cseas
Well hey, that's the Fway you beGlong to Cme
Well hey, that's the Fway you beGlong to Cme
