"Strange Rumors"
lyrics and music by Benjamin Newman

/ Am F G Am / / / /

Strange heats glowing at the edge of the cactus-waste...
Strange lights dancing in the twilight sky...
Strange, vast vultures that vanish without a trace...
We hear these rumors, and we wonder why.

	/: Am F G -Am / Am F - G :/

	We hear rumors that others have seen these sights
	On the tongues of travelers from far away;
	Some see omens portending the end of nights,
	And ask who will save them from the coming day.

All this is folly!  Things are as they've ever been!
Who will test these glares with their own eyes and ears?
Where are those skilled in scouting among our kin?
Let the Moon's Daughters prepare their spears!

		/ Am - G - / F - E - / 1st / F G - Am /

		Let's do our duty, brave scouts and sisters!
		Protect the borders of our mothers' clan!
		And learn the truth of these strangest of whispers:
		Of these strange, tall creatures who call themselves "maaaann"...
