The key to my 2005 Chevy Silverado will not turn in the ignition. Any suggestions?

It is a stripped down basic work truck - a very simple vehicle. No electric locks or windows so I don't believe it is an electric issue. I got in to start it, stuck the key in the ignition and cannot get it to turn. I have tried wiggling it and moving the steering wheel as I do, and even pushing the brakes. I have tried the process for a very long time, gently and not so gently. I have sprayed WD40 in the ignition and tapped the side of the ignition hoping to free up the tumblers if they are stuck. I'm no lock smith and am not an expert with these newer cars, but would like to avoid having to have it taken somewhere to be fixed. Any help would be hugely appreciated.
