Minor correction, it's originaly played with the capo on the third fret. Also I would like to suggest playing Cm7 right after C as it sounds much more like how he plays it live. You can watch his live performance here: https://youtu.be/pWha9CKESSU

Another minor correction for the lyrics: "Yeah they spelled it stong. Your stupid kid will now be stong" As a misspell of "strong", which is the joke.
