Can't Help Falling In Love - Performed by Elvis Presley

Here is my arrangement of Can't Help Falling In Love.  I am performing it using chords from the key of C, but it's really the key of D when the capo is placed at the second fret.  This is the same key as song by Elvis.

The song is played in 6/8 time.  Be sure to emphasize the melody as well place accents on beats one and four (ONE - two - three -FOUR- five-six).

The second section of the songs goes momentarily into E minor (really F#m because of the capo).  There is a two measure phrase that first has four even beats across the six beats followed by a regular measure of 6/8.  You could count it like this ONE and TWO and, ONE - two - three -FOUR- five-six.

Hope you will try and play along with me!
