He plays it with the capo on 7th fret - at least on the version I listened to:
The little guitar riff intro-thing he does will be included at the bottom, for those who fancy that.
[Intro]
F G C Am F G C
[Verse 1]
Well I spoke to this Fman
GSaid he’d been to the mCoon
AmCarved his name in the gFround
Saw the world spinning rGound
(and) came back that afterCnoon.
[Verse 2]
And I laughed at this Fman
GSaid he’d been lost at sCea
AmHeard the sirens' cFall
Seen the pirates fGall
To the monsters in the dCeep
[Chorus]
I said I’d heard some tall tFales
GSome good stories in my tAmime
EmSo I asked him for prFoof
And he showed me the trGuth
There was dancing in his Ceyes.
[Interlude]
1st horn interlude: F   G   C   Am   F   G  C  
(you can play the guitar "riff" here, if you fancy)
[Verse 3]
I could not believe thiFs man
GSaid he was a millionaireC  
AmHe said: "I know I dress in rFags
But I drive a vintage 'JGag'
And I’ve got a diamond chandelCier".
[Chorus]
I said I think I need a drFink
GAnd made my way outsidAme
EmYou know I’d swear this was a spFoof
If it wasn’t for the tGruth
There was dancing in his Ceyes.
[Interlude]
2nd horn interlude/solo: F   G   C   Am   F   G   CX2
[Verse 4]
(There isn't rhythm as such in the last verse, just a strum per chord will do)
When I came back in the rFoom
GThe man had disappCeared
AmHe left a rock from the mFoon
An eyepatch and a dGiamond
From a chandelCier.

If you aren't playing with a capo, simply add 7 to the number of the frets listed above,
as such your 1st fret relative to capo would be your 8th fret instead, your open string in capo = 7th fret.
Enjoy, and feel free to leave a comment regarding any errors :)
