You could always make one for yourself.

This is all you will need:

1. The starting pitch of each open string
2. A chromatic scale

Here is an E chromatic scale to get started:

E F F# G G# A A# B C C# D D# E

When you reach the octave ('E' again), just repeat said pattern over until you run out of frets.

Keep in mind that those accidentals can be flats as well. So from a fret number standpoint, F# = Gb, C# = Db, etc.
