E C#m G#m

Verse 1:
            E               C#m             G#m               A
There’s a road I’d like to tell you about, lives in my home town
      E                C#m                    G#m
Lake Shore Drive the road is called and it’ll take you up or down
     A              G#m                           A
From rags on up to riches fifteen minutes you can fly
 E                  C#m      G#m   A                E
Pretty blue lights along the way, help you right on by
        G#m                         A                                 E
And the blue lights shining with a heavenly grace, help you right on by

INSTRUMENTAL:
E C#m G#m

CHORUS:
           A                   G#m
And there ain't no road just like it
A          G#m
Anywhere I found
 E                C#m        G#m   A            E
Running south on Lake Shore Drive heading into town
      G#m                A                            E
Just slippin’ on by on L.S.D., Friday night trouble bound

(The rest of the song follows same chord structure)

Verse 2:
          E                  C#m        G#m                  A
And it starts up north from Hollywood, water on the driving side
      E              C#m                  G#m
Concrete mountains rearing up, throwing shadows just about five
      A                      G#m                            A
Sometimes you can smell the green if your mind is feeling fine
       G#m             A                                    E
There ain’t no finer place to be, than running Lake Shore Drive

Chorus:

Verse 3:
           E                      C#m             G#m                   A
And it’s Friday night and you’re looking clean, to early to start the rounds
   E                        C#m                  G#m
A ten minute ride from the Gold Coast back make sure you’re pleasure bound
          A              G#m                                           A
And it’s four o’clock in the morning and all of the people have gone away
 E                 C#m      G#m                 A                 E
Just you and your mind and Lake Shore Drive, tomorrow is another day
        G#m                       A                               E
And the sunshine’s fine in the morning time, tomorrow is another day
