i recommend the following chord positions, they are the easiest/best sounding in my
opinion. Your results my vary. played with a reggae feel on the off beat, mostly the e,b,g
strings but i put the full chords if that tickles your fancy.

'Cos if [G#]we lived a long time ago,
These would be my love letters to y[A#m]ou, to you
[Cm]If we lived a lo[A#m]ng time ago
[Cm]These would be my love [A#m]letters to you, [G#]to you
Well these wo[G#]rds that I write, they go up in the sky
Sit up in space, come down in your eyes
[A#m]It's true, it's true
[G#]I don't need no birds that fly, I can send my love through the satellite
[A#m]It's true, it's true
'Cos if [G#]we lived a long time ago,
These would be my love letters to yo[A#m]u, to you
[G#]if we lived a long time ago,
These would be my love letters to [A#m]you, to you
[Cm]If we lived a lo[A#m]ng time ago
[Cm]These would be my love [A#m]letters to you[G#], to you
[Cm]If we lived a lo[A#m]ng time ago
[Cm]These would be my love [A#m]letters to you, [G#]to you
[G#]Well I don't need no plane or train or automobile
To send you all my love and ask you, "How do you feel?"
[A#m]It's true, it's true
[G#]I used to keep your letters underneath my bed
Now at a push of a button, they go straight to my head
[A#m]It's true, they go straight to my head
[Cm]If we lived a lo[A#m]ng time ago
[Cm]These would be my love [A#m]letters to you, [G#]to you
[Cm]If we lived a lo[A#m]ng time ago
[Cm]These would be my love [A#m]letters to you, [G#]to you
[C#]And if there was a blackout, I would h[D#]ave to let you know
[C#]I'd light a thousand lanterns in the sky[D#] and let them go
[C#]I'd watch them float away and burn out right[D#] next to the stars
[C#]But at least you'd know that I sent my love an[D#]d the brightest ones were ours
[G#]if we lived a long time ago,
These would be my love letters to y[A#m]ou, to you
[Cm]If we lived a lo[A#m]ng time ago
[Cm]These would be my love [A#m]letters to you,[G#] to you
[Cm]If we lived a lo[A#m]ng time ago
[Cm]These would be my love [A#m]letters to you, [G#]to you
