How about:

\version "2.18.2"

\header {
  %% perhaps:
  tagline = ##f
  indent = 0
}

\layout {
  %% perhaps:
  ragged-last-bottom = ##f
  \context {
    \Score
    \omit BarNumber
  }
}

<<
  \new TabStaff \with { stringTunings = #ukulele-tuning }
    {
      %% perhaps:
      \clef "moderntab"
      \repeat unfold 8 { s1 \break }
    }
  \new Staff \repeat unfold 8 { c''1 \bar "|." }
>>
