This is the correct key according to the sun records recording
Train Of Love - Johnny Cash
F#
Train of love's a-comin', big black wheels a-hummin'
B
People waitin' at the station, happy hearts are drummin'
F#
Trainman tell me maybe, ain't you got my baby
C#
Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam
F#
But everybody's baby but mine's comin' home.
Now stop your whistle blowin', 'cause I got ways of knowin'
Your bringin' other people's lovers, but my own keeps goin'
Train of love's deceivin', when she's not gone she's leavin'
Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam
But everybody's baby but mine's comin' home
Train of love's now hastin', sweethearts standin' waitin'
Here and there and everywhere, there's going to be embracin'
Trainman tell me maybe, ain't you got my baby
Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam
But everybody's baby but mine's comin' home
Train of love's a-leavin', leavin' my heart grievin'
But early or late, I sit and wait, because I'm still believin'
We'll walk away together, though I may wait forever
Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam
But everybody's baby but mine's comin' home

To get this sound, you can also capo 1 and play key of F chords or
capo 4 ands play key of D chords.
-lmofle | 4/29/2004 | About the key of this song, you are right in one sense and wrong in another. On about half of the songs Cash recorded at Sun, Luther Perkins'(Cash's lead guitarist) guitar sounds as though it is tuned somewhere between the key of F and F#. If you play along with this song in the key of F, you will find that the actual recording sounds sharp. If you play it in F#, the recording will sound flat. This holds true for about half of the total SUN recordings, mainly the early, early, SUN recordings. Now, the reason for this is, Perkins was using an Echosonic amplifier with a built-in tape delay unit. As you may know, these units, when activated, would make the resulting sound slighly sharp, which is what caused this tuning alteration.
