I Can't Sit Down by Wade Mainer - Banjo Tab (Two-Finger Style)
$15
Get this!
This is a song made popular by Wade Mainer. He played a two-finger style of banjo picking. I'm used to just playing Scruggs-style so it was challenging to me at times. You will just be using the thumb and index fingers in the right hand. The chorus also changes time signatures several times. Overall, the song isn't too complicated and has a lot of repeating parts.

Charleston Girl - Tyler Childers - Complete Song - Banjo Tab
$15
Get this!
I originally was just going to create banjo tab for the intro, but I have since created banjo tab for the complete song of Charleston Girl. I have combined everything into this one piece of music. The original song is by Tyler Childers, but I have created this banjo arrangement myself. Keep in mind this is my best attempt by ear. Do not expect every single note to be exactly the same as the original. However, I think it resembles it quite well. The tab includes the intro, verse, and chorus. For the instrumental sections, you just play the intro over again. I did not write out the sections more than once that repeat. The order of the song is in the footer of the second page, so you can know where to go while walking yourself through it. I also have just the intro for sale as well. Check out my banjo YouTube tutorial on this song. Let me know if you enjoy my work. Happy banjo playing!
