Here are the chords for "Lighthouse" by Adrianne Lenker,
off of the album "Hours Were the Birds"

check out the song for practice.

A: x02220
Asus2: x02200
D: xx0232

If you'd like to make the long stretches of only strumming A
more interesting, alternate back and forth between A and Asus4
as your heart desires.

A Asus2 A Asus2 Well I left here in my sleep when I was dreaming A Asus2 A Miles and miles away into a place, A D my heart was scheming an escape Dsus2 Asus4 A That love drew from me

[Pre-Chorus]
A Asus2 And I'm making all these things A Asus2 And constructing all these scenes A Asus2 And I'm stitching up the seams A Of the fabric of my dreams A D And I'm here in my boat Dsus2 Asus4 And I'm roaring up to shore as you sing
[Chorus]
A Well I'm ringing all the bells from my lighthouse dear A Time is just an ocean and you're almost here Asus2 A One for the mind Asus2 A Two for the soul Asus2 A A D Three for the body and the heart that knows, that knows A Asus2 A I'll never ever let you go
