It is simple. You can go from CPVC to copper with a device called a "shark bite"; it allows you to make plumbing connections without soldering or using CPVC cement. Use it for your overflow. Don't forget pipe dope on the copper threads going into the tank.
Turn off the water, power, and gas. Drain the tank, and disconnect the fittings. Replace the tank, hook up the water and refill the tank, reconnect the power and gas relight your pilot. Shouldn't take more than two hours.
