Anyone have a simple tune played up the neck, like 7th fret up. I mean real simple. Any tab would help

Yep. Tennessee Waltz (http://www.nigelgatherer.com/tunes/tab/tab1/ten.html) in A, going up to ninth fret on E and A strings. Very easy shifts, lovely tune.

There are some good instructional resources to get out of first position - check out Niles Hokkanen's Bluegrass Up the Neck and Simon Mayor's Mastering the Mandolin (among others, I'm sure!).
The andy Griffith theme is a fun little song with some 7th fret work in it. Also, the Irish Washer Woman is a nice one for some pinky exercise. Both are tabbed in the mandozine files.
