By Elvis Presley. By Elvis Presley and Vera Matson. Arranged by FERNANDO LUIZ NEVES. 20th Century,Contemporary,Film/TV,Multicultural,Pop,World. 4 pages. Fernando Neves #976810. Published by Fernando Neves (A0.1393328).Love Me Tender is a song composed by Elvis Presley and Vera Matson, based on the melody of an older song called Aura Lee composed during the American Civil War which was popular among the soldiers on both sides of the war, who sang it around campfires or wrote letters to their sweethearts using the lyrics. The song also reflected the sadness and uncertainty of the war, as many lovers were separated or lost their lives in the conflict. Elvis recorded his version named Love Me Tender which was recorded in 1956 and released as a single, along with the movie of the same name. The movie was a musical Western, starring Presley as Clint Reno, a young man who falls in love with his brother's fiancée after the brother is presumed dead in the Civil War. The song was a huge hit, selling over a million copies before the movie was released. The song has a simple and gentle melody, with a romantic and sentimental lyric. This arrangement for violin and acoustic guitar keeps the sentimental mood with the violin playing the melody and the acoustic guitar on the accompaniment. 4-page PDF contains complete score with tablature for guitar. Separated parts are also available for violin (melody) and Guitar (accompaniment score with tablature, score, and fingering).
