You can remove the passenger side door lock, there is a key code for the door key on the lock. Take that key code to locksmith and he can cut you a with the code for 5 bucks or less.

I tried to do that, I actually work at a Chevy dealer and we can't make keys that far back based on VINs

Remove the door panel, there is a little U shaped clip holding the lock in. It just slides out after you remove the lock rod. Be careful when removing the lock rod, the plastic clip can be brittle.
FYI: Its a 4 digit code.

Oh, too bad it is very handy. So the OP can't lock his car either?
Years ago I mean a lot of years ago I lost the keys to my door. I locksmith made a new one by sticking a blank in the lock turning it until it made marks, ground it down repeated it a few times like magic I had a new key.
