ok so it tunes backwards from a guitar/bass so you just form guitar chords upside down for the basics
things further up the neck i'm not so sure about
google mandolin chords fool

I got one more question for you if you got a sec...
So, I know Zepplin and Rod Stewart, and REM use a mandolin,

Seals and Crofts I guess
oh, The Band too I think
