I see all this tab that has c chords at the first fret, but in the movie it shows it starting out on the 6 and 7th fret d and g strings.
does anyone have the correct way?

Does C sound right? That's all that matters. No one's going to watch you play, then complain that it doesn't look the same as the movie.

i watched him on the superbowl and sometimes his fingering was different from what i heard.
i also once saw him in a video and there was NO CABLE to his guitar!
i just don't know about the guy, first not knowing (or not being able to read?) the correct tabs and now this ...

lol The SuperBowl was a live show. You can hear a few parts where he plays a couple chords or notes and then takes his hand off the guitar and it would make the scratch sound and the exact moment. He is a damn good guitar player. He might be a "pop star", but he is one of the least manufactured there is or ever was. You also have to remember, he had a full on funk band he would write music for.

In the movie, I thought the song was in Bb. the first chord is a Bb add 9 I think.
Bb F Bb C F Low to high starting on the A string.
I can't do ascii tab.
It's an easy song, isn't it. It's I VIm IV V or thereabouts.
