Notes: Transposed from Rob Bourassa's video lessons. I hope this is OK with Mr Bourassa. There may be a mistake around the 13th measure.

Notes: This tablature for Foggy Mountain Breakdown is written with both a 2/4 time signature and a 4/4 time signature.
The basic musical phrase that defines the song consists of 16 measures. The first 16 measures of this tablature have a 2/4 time signature and the second 16 measures have a 4/4 time signature. For both time signatures, the arrangement is the same. All 32 measures are played by Tabledit at a rate of 160 beats/minutes.
The purpose of doing this is to demonstrate that tempo is a function of both the beat/minute rate and the time signature, not just the beat/minute rate. When you play the tablature with Tabledit, you can hear the change in tempo, even though the beat/minute rate remains constant throughout all 32 measures.

Notes: These are a couple of original breaks for Foggy Mountain Breakdown played in melodic style. I also use measure 13 as a kickoff for melodic tunes such as Sailor's Hornpipe. The first measure or two of each break are also very useful and can be used for a lot of things. Measures 9 and 15 are a couple of melodic fills that I use very frequently. As you can see, there are a number of things that can be useful in your playing beyond just using them for Foggy Mountain Breakdown.

Notes: I have edited this time in attempt to get a closer representation of the actual timing. First attempt at this, so it may be way off. Rob has confirmed that the fingering is correct anyway, so it should be helpful.

Notes: This tab is in response to a post about writing a song in a minor key and shows that a song could be "flipped over" into it's relative minor key. The chord progression is as follows:
