Can't Help Falling in Love is one of those songs that sounds beautiful the moment you play it, and it's a lot more approachable than people think. Capo second fret and you're working with open cowboy chords the whole way through.
The feel is a gentle one-two-three waltz rhythm, and since most of the chords are standard open shapes, the strumming pattern is pretty forgiving. Any combination of strings tends to sound good in that time signature.
Go have fun with that one!
