It looks like he's playing the below chords, and to me it sounds correct with a capo on the second fret
although the video shows one on the third fret (maybe he's tuned a half step down?)
I'm pretty confident about everything except the E7, if anyone thinks it's something else please let me know!
[Intro]
C E7 F C
[Verse 1]
Call these lines on our fE7ace
growing deeper
   Fall these aches and these paiCns
make use Gweaker
Fall these years gone Cby
   E7and it's never felt so rFight
[Chorus]
Fjust like George Burns and GraciCe Allen
just lAmike Johnny Cash and June Carter, tFoo
Fgetting old is a pCriviledge we hold
And I'm so Glucky I'm getting Fold with yCou
[Verse 2]
Call the memories that we made toE7gether
Ferase these lines aches and pCains
and make us bettGer
Fall this time gone byC
