New Soundcheck Leak of Unreleased Song: "Run While We Can"
The song "Run While We Can" aka "Run While You Can" isn't new, but the recording from the Vegas soundcheck certainly is. The song recieved wide-spread sharing this past weekend and was apparently recorded by someone who had access to MGM Arena prior to the shows. See the empty almanac entry on "Run While We Can."
Weekly Davespeak shot photos from the photo pit that weekend. Most of these photos are available for high-resolution download. Check them out.
Sound checks are a frequent source for new DMB material, as the band typically will rehearse songs before playing them live during these sessions. Not all songs performed during soundcheck make it into a public performance or recording.

Lyrics to Dave Matthews Band's "Run While We Can" courtesy dmbzepplin on dmbtabs.com
I woke up, thinking lost
Too many problems here
Makes me wonder
Girl, you're so vain
Then you hold me up
Up all the way
If only I could
Always feel this way
Can't help but think about
Come on lets take a (vow/ride)
Come on just you and me...
Come on
Let's Make It
Run While We Can
Let's Make It
Break away Baby
Let's Make It
Come on baby..
Let's Run While We Can
Run While We Can
The tv's on, turn it off
Treat me like a new man
Makes me wonder
Could I hurt so bad?
And then you talk to me
And make me think of you
I can walk through any door
If I could never be so sure
Can't help but think about
Come on lets take a (vow/ride)
Come on just you and me...
Come on
Let's Make It
Come on Baby
Let's Make It
Let's take a drive
Let's Make It
Come with me baby
Let's Run While We Can
Run While We Can
You got me
You got me
Let's Make It
Break for it baby
Let's Make It
A place where we can hide
Let's Make It
Break for it baby
Let's Run While We Can...
Hold me
Let's run while we can
