Lake Shore Drive by Aliotta Haynes Jeremiah - Guitar Chords
<< Back to Aliotta Haynes Jeremiah Song List
Version 1 Version 2
If you grew up around Chicagoland, you probably heard this song every morning on the WBBM traffic report.
The other version here on Ultimate Guitar is in the right key, but the voicings/inversions are correct
with a capo on the 4th fret. A few of the chords are different, too. I love this song and really wanted
to get down all those quick chord changes on the chorus.
The chords are all basic, I play the F as a barre chord:
C CM9/B Am Em F
[0] [0] [0] [0] [1]
[1] [1] [1] [0] [1]
[0] [0] [2] [0] [2]
[2] [0] [2] [2] [3]
[3] [2] [0] [2] [3]
[x] [x] [x] [0] [1]
*Capo 4, key of C, Standard tuning* (with no capo, key of E)

There's a road I'd like to tell you about, lives in my home town

Lake Shore Drive the road is called and it'll take you up or down

From rats on up to riches fifteen minutes you can fly

Running south on Lake Shore Drive heading into town
Em F C
Just slippin' on by on LSD, Friday night trouble bound
(piano break) C Am Em Em
*It all repeats for the other two verses/choruses, but here's a repeat of the chords with the lyrics*
C Am Em F
And it starts up north from Hollywood, water on the driving side
C CM9/B Am Em
Concrete mountains rearing up, throwing shadows just about five
F C Em F
Sometimes you can smell the green if your mind is feeling fine

There ain't no finer place to be, than running Lake Shore Drive

And there's no peace of mind, or place you see, than riding on Lake Shore Drive

C Am
And it's Friday night and you're looking clean
Em F
Too early to start the rounds
C CM9/B Am Em
A ten minute ride from the Gold Coast back make sure you're pleasure bound
F C Em F
And it's four o'clock in the morning and all of the people have gone away
C CM9/B Am Em F C
Just you and your mind and Lake Shore Drive, tomorrow is another day
Em F C
When the sunshine's fine in the morning time, tomorrow is another day
(piano break) C Am Em Em

And there ain't no road just like it

Anywhere I found
C CM9/B Am Em F C
Running south on Lake Shore drive heading into town
