Fm Ukulele Chord Explanation
The F minor chord contains the notes F-Ab-C.
To build an Fm chord, take the minor triad formula (1-b3-5) and apply it to the F major scale (F, G, A, Bb, C, D, E).
Identify the first, third, and fifth scale degrees in an F major scale which are F-A-C.
Because the chord Fm is a minor chord, lower the third scale degree a half step in accordance with the minor triad formula, which results in the notes F-Ab-C for the F minor chord.
