No Aphrodisiac chords by The Whitlams

"No Aphrodisiac" by The Whitlams

Transcribed by Daniel Meijer

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:


 Dm Bb Gm Am
--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:
