Info Wanted: Chewbacca's Dialogue is Star Wars? (delivered by Peter Mayhew)

My question is, does anyone know exactly what Peter Mayhew is saying before his lines are dubbed over later with Sound effects? Is there a script somewhere of what cues Peter was given?

IE, before Han said “You said it Chewie” on the DS, Chewie said “That old man is mad”(or something along those lines).

"I don't mind if you don't like my manners. I don't like them myself. They're pretty bad. I grieve over them during the long winter evenings."

Yeah there is a little taster in Empire of Dreams when Mayhew says "that old man is crazy". Ford follows with the well-known, "well you said it Chewie. Where did you bring up that old fossil?!"

If I remember well, there are some "Peter-Mayhew-talking" shoots in "Deleted Magic", no? And Solo/Ford reacts to those "real" dialogues.
It's not a lot, if you want to make Chewie subs for the whole movie, but it's a start. And for some scenes, we can easily guess what he's saying.
