Old phone (2025)
G
1. I found my old phone today
D
in a
box that I had hidden away.
C
Nostalgia trying to lead me
astray,
G - D
maybe
I'll unwrite some wro…ngs.
G
2. I charge the battery again,
D
combinations
‘cause my passcode had changed,
C
opened
up and saw familiar names,
G - D
now I
wonder where they've go….ne.
Em C
Conversations with my dead friends, messages from all my exes,
G D
I kinda think that this was best left in the
past where it belongs.
Em C
I feel an overwhelming sadness of all the friends I do not have left,
G D -
D7
seeing how my family has fractured,
growing up and moving o…….n.
G
2. I found my old phone today,
D
arguments
that I tried to keep at bay,
C
the
ones who love me I just pushed them away,
G - D
couldn't
tell the difference from the lee…ches.
G
My closed hand still holds
some mates,
D
but
if I'm open, it gets smaller day by day,
C
I can't tell if it is pleasure
or pain,
G D
trying
to keep within my remit.
Em C
Conversations with my dead friends, messages from all my exes,
G D
I kinda think that this was best left in the
past where it belongs.

seeing how my family has fractured,

C G D
+ Oo-oo-oo-ooh, oo-oo-oo-ooh, oo-oo-oo-ooh, o-oo-oo-ooh !
G
3. I found my old phone today,
D
so
full of love, yet so full of hate.
C
I put it back inside there from
whence it came,
G D
nothing
good will come from regretting.
+ CHORUS

today.
