  • This is my instrumental cover of the song "Can't Help Falling In Love" which was recorded by Elvis Presley in 1961 for the album "Blue Hawaii" and which appeared in the film of the same name. It was written by Hugo Peretti, Luigi Creator and George David Weiss.The melody is based on "Plaisir d'amour", a popular French love song composed in 1784 by Jean-Paul-Égide Martini. The song was initially written from the perspective of a woman as "Can't Help Falling in Love with Him", which explains the first and third line ending on "in" and "sin" rather than words rhyming with "you".
    I played this using my Fender Stratocaster (Bridge Pickup) with the Zoom G2.1Nu (EFTP Patch B0). Recording was done via USB to my home PC with Cubase. The backing track was from Karaoke Version and is the one with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra as featured on the 2015 album "If I Can Dream". It is available for purchase here - www.karaoke-ve...
    I also used tablature written by Phil McGarrick and it is available for download here - www.philmcgarri...
    I hope you enjoy my rendition of this beautiful ballad
    LYRICS:
    Wise men say
    Only fools rush in
    But I can't help falling in love with you
    Shall I stay?
    Would it be a sin
    If I can't help falling in love with you?
    Like a river flows
    Surely to the sea
    Darling, so it goes
    Some things are meant to be
    Take my hand,
    Take my whole life, too
    For I can't help falling in love with you
    Like a river flows
    Surely to the sea
    Darling, so it goes
    Some things are meant to be
    Take my hand,
    Take my whole life, too
    For I can't help falling in love with you
    For I can't help falling in love with you

      Hi Dave!
      Thank you for the listen and very kind comments, I really enjoyed playing this one. Was a lot of fun to learn and a nice challenge to re-tab the final section. Hope you're well and staying safe

      Hi Phil!
      Thank you for your kind comments on this, after hearing your version I just had to learn this one. I did have to re-tab the last part which was in Eb and my BT didn't match Ian's, so I reworked it to work in D. The swells were fun to do and the fill-ins were a nice challenge. Hope you have a brilliant weekend
      Best Wishes
