This song became well-known with Elvis Presley’s version entitled “Love Me Tender.” But the melody was composed by George R. Poulton and published in 1861. The song was popularized during the Civil War and is still beloved today. Its modern recognition is proof that this song is a timeless classic. Here I play it on zither for your enjoyment. Feel free to download the mp3 and share it with someone you love!
