How to play the G.I. Blues melody on guitar

The melody of G.I. Blues by Elvis Presley runs 169 notes across 25 bars, 1:50 long in C at 120 beats per minute. The tab sits almost entirely in the first two frets, one note at a time — no chords to barre and no strumming pattern to keep up with. A piano backing track plays the chords and bass underneath, so the line you are learning sounds like the record even at half speed.

Prefer to strum and sing it instead? G.I. Blues chords and lyrics.
