I don't think that will "copyright" it. I think that would only prove a date.

Just so you know, we have a Songwriting and Copyrights forum and there might be something down there now that could explain it for you.

You fill out a form, send it to the copyright office, and pay a fee.

You're in Canada? Go to the Canadian Intellectual Property Office

(US folks need to go to the US Copyright Office)

Go look at the sticky in the copyright forum.

Just about all you'll ever need to know.
