This song card is brought to you by the Emerald City Supporters, so you can join with us after the national anthem and the Champions League banner reveal in singing “Born in 1974” (To the tune of "When Johnny Comes Marching Home")

Born in Nineteen-Seventy-Four, Sounders! Sounders!

And now we win like never before, Sounders! Sounders!

We love our boys in famous green, the greatest team you've ever seen

Seattle Sounders, Born in Seventy-Four!
