This is the tune to a Civil War-era ballad written by George R. Poulton and W.W. Fosdick in 1861. The tune is better known since it was used by Elvis Presley for "Love Me Tender".
Played on my Ozark tenor guitar, tuned GDAE (octave mandolin tuning).
For the Mandolin Cafe Song-A-Week social group, Week #94.
