"No Aphrodisiac" by The Whitlams

This song is very simple, harmonically, even with the embellishments of
the string section (Sydney's Fourplay - check them out!), but this doesn't
detract from the song's impact. Love Tim Freedman's lyrics!!

Chords as follows - played by piano or arpeggiated by guitar. These are
just the chords, voice them as you like, but on the CD, in the arpeggios,
the guitar plays all chords as barre chords:

DmDm Piano Chord 
  BbBb Piano Chord 
  GmGm Piano Chord 
  AmAm Piano Chord 

--5---6---3---5----
--6---6---3---5----
--7---7---3---5----
--7---8---5---7----
--5---8---5---7----
--x---6---3---5----

The arpeggios are picked:

GmGm Piano Chord 
       AmAm Piano Chord 
     DmDm Piano Chord 

--------------------------
---------3------5-----6---
-------5------5------7----
