Mountain Road
Warm acoustic folk with male vocals, fingerpicked steel-string guitar and gentle mandolin fills. Easy sway at a mid-slow tempo, soft brushed percussion and a round, singing bass. Verses stay intimate and storylike; chorus lifts with stacked harmonies and subtle organ pad. Overall feel evokes nostalgic sing-along energy with a bright, open-air mix.

Lyrics
[Verse 1] Morning tram bells School bag on my shoulder Fog on the field Breath hanging in the cold Old stone walls Names carved in the timber Rusty goalposts Stories to be told [Chorus] Take me home Mountain road To the place I belong Auckland Grammar Blue and gold Oh Take me home Mountain road [Verse 2] Voices in the hall Echo past the trophies Boots on gravel Mud across the stair Laughter in the rain Boot camp on the sideline Steam from jerseys Hanging in the air [Chorus] [Bridge] Wai te Mata shining Over Tāmaki Makaurau On Mount Eden Known as Maungawhau We are brothers We never walk alone [Chorus]
