Lyrics
[Intro]
Raise the black, boys
Let the whole damn ocean know
We were never born to kneel
[Verse 1]
I left my name on a burning shore
With a bottle, a blade and nothing more
The king took gold, the sea took men
But the tide brought monsters back again
We chased the moon through cannon smoke
Made our vows where the gallows broke
And every scar beneath my sail
Has got a story I’ll never tell
[Pre-Chorus]
So pour one out for the ones below
The sea remembers what the living don’t
[Chorus]
Dead men tell no tales
So sing it while we’re breathing
Raise your glass and raise your sails
Tonight we cheat the reaper
If the devil wants my soul
He can find it in the gale
We’ll go down with gold in our hands
’Cause dead men tell no tales
[Verse 2]
There’s a red moon hanging over the mast
And every good thing dies too fast
We stole our freedom, paid in blood
And watched our sins sink in the flood
No crown above me, no chain below
Only the wind decides where I go
If tomorrow brings the final wave
Then tonight we drink beside our graves
[Pre-Chorus]
Pour one out for the ones below
The sea remembers what the living don’t
[Chorus]
Dead men tell no tales
So sing it while we’re breathing
Raise your glass and raise your sails
Tonight we cheat the reaper
If the devil wants my soul
He can find it in the gale
We’ll go down with gold in our hands
’Cause dead men tell no tales
[Bridge — crew chant]
HEY!
No kings!
HEY!
No chains!
HEY!
No graves can hold our names!
Storm above!
Hell below!
Where we end—
Only the ocean knows!
[Breakdown]
One life.
One sea.
No mercy waiting for me.
So when the black flag disappears…
Remember we were here.
[Final Chorus]
Dead men tell no tales
So scream it like you mean it
Raise your glass and raise your sails
We’re too damn lost to fear it
And if the devil wants my soul
Tell him follow through the gale
We’ll be laughing at the gates of hell
’Cause dead men—
DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES!
[Outro]
Yo-ho…
Let the cold wind blow
Yo-ho…
Only the ocean knows.
