I don't know where to find a downloadable one. I switched from clarinet to bassoon too just recently. If you buy the book Standard of Excellence, any level, the very back has a fingering chart for it. But just one tip. The F has a tendency to go flat (well, it does for me,

) so if you tighten your mouth a little it will probably work. And drop your jaw slightly for the Bb. Well, er, that's what my band teacher told me to do...
