Birthday Song ukulele

Birthday Song

• Ab

It's very easy to play,
With Ukulele, you just bar across on the third fret then put your fingers on the 4th on
E and 5th on G to form the first note - Ab. The second chord you play is just moving all
your fingers down a fret to a G, then for the last note, I think it's some kind of cm? 
Let's call it a cm for the sake of this. But it's basically just the first chord without
your finger on the E.
In other terms:

Ab                  G                Cm
This is a song that I wrote you for your birthday
Ab                  G                Cm
Because I couldn't be bothered to buy you anything
Ab                      G
And I know that you might think that
             Cm               G
Writing this song required more effort
           Ab    G        Cm
Than going out and buying you something

(still Cm)
But I can promise that it didn't
Ab         G                   Cm
I'm not even going to include your name in this song
Ab                  G           Cm
Because that way I can use it on somebody else
Ab                 G             Cm          G
And if you listen closely then you might be able to tell
       Ab          G          Cm
That I only bothered using three chords
                                       G
I guess that just shows you how much I care

Ab  G      Cm        G
Happy birthday insert name here
Ab               G            Cm
Congratulations on living another year
Ab G      Cm          G
Only joking I did get you something
    Ab G   Cm
And it's right here
