NOKIA E63
by AEMYN

VERSE 1
G C
There's a photo of a fence
That you saved with your floppy disk drive
And I don’t know what it meant to you
There’s no way that I could guess right

You were trying, I can see it
In the labels on the JPEGs
And I’m trawling through the archive
Of the story we were making

PRE
Am C
We were always getting older
As our lives were getting stranger

G G

CHORUS
Em C G G
There’s that kid again
With the Nokia E63
And I’m meeting them
In 2 megapixel clarity

Am C
What’s the difference between an archive
And just hoarding old pages on hard drives
What’s worth keeping or deleting
And what does it mean

To live a good life

VERSE 2
G C
There's a fridge out in the garden
That saw everything we’ve been through
There's that wall behind the bedroom
The first art piece that I installed

PRE
Am C
We were always getting older
As our lives were getting stranger

G G

CHORUS
Em C G G
There’s that kid again
With the Nokia E63
And I’m meeting them
Despite the failing batteries

What’s the difference between an archive
And pressing a flower into cyanotype
What’s worth keeping or deleting
And what does it mean

To live a good life

BRIDGE
I’m finally meeting myself
I’m finally meeting myself
