the only way to get a lock off is 1 cut it off with a pair of bolt cutters your local police can probably help you or 2 call a locksmith or 3 if you know anybody that owns a garadge cut it off with a set of torches

Hacksaw would be the cheapest way, bolt cutters would be easier but cutters with a jaw wide enough to cut the plastic coated chain might be a little on the costly side for a one time use.

the hardware store, sales the padlock cutter or chain cutter.
it is kin of a scissor with small cutting part but long handles,

Many places will rent you bolt cutters (I've rented them from Home Depot for one) Cheaper than buying a pair.

if you have both pieces a good locksmith can make you another key.
