If the video and sheet music were not published together, it makes sense that they may vary.
For keys, it is generally easy for beginners to play in the keys of C or Am because you can more often ignore black keys that way.

Again, thanks for the reply, Guybrush.
When I play G4 on my piano the note sounds like the key that I am interpreting as being G3 in the video. So, I seem to be incorrectly applying sheet music in general to individual keyboard keys. I'll have to sort that out somehow.
