I like the original recording by Binnie Hale - no capo needed:

The song structure is unusual - Verse 1 and Verse 3 have the same tune -
but verses 2 and 4 have a different tune.
And the ending to the 4th chorus has different words from those used the
other three.

[Verse 1]
C G C
Some folks put much reliance on politics and science
Dm7 G C
There's only one hero for me
E B7 E B7
His praise we should be roaring - the man who thought of pouring
Dm7 D7 G7
The first boiling water onto tea
[Chorus 1]
C Cmaj7 Dm7 G7
I like a nice cup of tea in the morning
C C+ F Dm
For to start the day you see
Dm7 G C D7 G7
And at half-past eleven well my idea of Heaven is a nice cup of tea
C Cmaj7 Dm7 G7
I like a nice cup of tea with my dinner
C C+ F Dm
And a nice cup of tea with my tea
F F#dim C A7
And when it's time for bed there's a lot to be said
Dm7 G7 C
For a nice cup of tea
[Verse 2]
