From the recordings Pennsylvania Springtime - Running from the TV and Duo - mando guitar bass
May 27, 2012
The May 20th session. This is the first of two cuts where we used the mando in lieu of bass. We experimented with the double-down approach: two octaves down from the electric mandolin's actual pitch. We found a great tone, and the pick and mando fingering gave a different vibe to the bass line and bass solos. Hope you like it!

Pennsylvania Springtime
I guess eye promised U a Pennsylvania Springtime
Inn the City of Angles , ‘round the First Of Maye
Eye kept a’ calling you the best thing ever fore’ me
We turned o - ver , and Their It Lay
Eye no I promised U a Sterling Expectation
Bay – King in The desert , drowning in The Haze
Oui kept a’ looking four that Window In The Moment
Eye turned over and There It Lei
There Sure – Lee must have been sum kind of Hurricane A’ Waiting
Shrouded all in Sweetness , lurking on The Stray
It kept A’ Reigning with the sun beams Ever Glowing
U turned o – ver , and their it lay
Know Body ever tolled me ‘bout The Bobbing Hump – Dee - Dump –Tee
The Moghoulith Ghoul , and Snippitting Strays
There just devouring the starlight of The Foolish
They turned over and There It Lay
Serendipity discovered all The Fun that U we’re having
Dreaming your tomorrows from some Sterling Yesterday
When we overcome the Needing Us , too give a’ way Our Feelings
We turned over , and their it lay
I’d real - E like to catch U , Inn a pennsylvania springtime
Or may be one in autumn , it’s really hard two saye
We’ll see The Spirit Dancing , and laugh at Our Creations
Knowing if we feed Them , They’ll devour up Our Way
So if your ever Passing Bye’ sum Hungry Indecision
Bet – Terr know – tiz your direction , and the thyme of day
There’s way toooooo much con – fusion from the Endless Glow of starlight
Feeding All Awareness , and They’re It Lei
Eye’m Maye – King an alignment fore’ a Pennsylvania Springtime
Alwayz Luminescent , Never Fades a’ way
That Might not be you’re Intention , Tay – King Cair with all you’re
Feelings
Making sure your Starlight passes over ware it lay
Eye know I’ll always promise U that Sterling Expectation
Made from Purest Sunshine , laughing in the Haze
Hang on Every Moment , every hope it Ever Dreamed fore’
Lets Rendezvous Tomorrow in a Pennsylvania Plays -- rico story
running from the t . v .
rainbows weeping in the sun
lots of laughs , but not much fun
a thousand reasons to say good bye
you hang around and watch her fly
black geese on a black pond
my friend the fat dog came along
sitting on the concrete rim
hoping that wii don ' t fall in
ii ' mm running form the t . v .
almost out the door
ii ' mm runing from the t . v .
who said eye was a boar
ii ' mm running from the t . v .
eye ' ve got nothing left to say
ii ' mm running from the t . v .
who said eye was afraid
brave old lady gonna walk on ice
the end gonna come ,, and it won ' t be nice
hii really needs her ,, but hii really doesn ' t care
eye gave away the lion ' s share
angel with a guitar ALL _ A _ LONE
eye never stop playing fore ' any telephone
ii left home fore ' a couple of years
when eye got back things were really weird
rain bows weeping in the sun
over half way now weave come
U know as little as you knew bee _ fore
ii started out on this pro _ mo tour -- jaymes joyz
