capo on the 3rd fret

D                                             Bm
There's a certain hill outside of town called Sam Hill
      D                                  A
And a certain guy used to go there every day
      D                               Bm
They said a certain girl lived up in Sam Hill
      Em                           A
Aw, a pretty girl, not hep to city ways


      D                                     G
This certain guy would come down the hill a smilin'
Em                                  A
Headed back to town at the crack of dawn
       D                                    G
And he had 'em all a wonderin' what he was doin'
      D                 A                D
Yeah, wonderin' what in Sam Hill's goin' on


                                    Bm
We knew this certain guy was not a goldminer
         D                        A
Cause he never took a shovel or a pick
    D                        Bm
He only took a little box of candy
    Em                             A
And disappeared in Sam Hill mighty quick


   D                               G
We tried to follow him to his destination
       Em                                A
But he had a secret path and soon he was gone
       D                                  G
And he had us all a wonderin' what he was doin'
      D                 A                D    G    A    D
Yeah, wonderin' what in Sam Hill's goin' on


                                        Bm      
I know that you have wondered too about Sam Hill
       D                                        A
You've probably asked "What in Sam Hill's goin' on?"
    D                           Bm
All I can say in answer to your question
       Em                        A
Is the goin's on are still goin' on


     D                                 G
This certain guy's still takin' up his candy
     Em                      A
He's 99 and all his youth is gone
       D                                       G
But he climbs that hill and still comes down a smilin'
          D                 A                D
And we're wonderin' what in Sam Hill's goin' on
       Bm     Em    
Wish I knew
        A                D             
What in Sam Hill's goin' on
         Bm          Em
He won't tell us'
        A                D
What in Sam Hill's goin' on
        Bm         Em
He just snickers
        A                D
What in Sam Hill's goin' on
