C Am
There's a certain hill outside of town called Sam Hill
C G7
And a certain guy used to go there every day
C Am
They said a certain girl lived up in Sam Hill
Dm G7
Aw a pretty girl not hep to city ways
C F
This certain guy would come down the hill a grinning
Dm G
Headed back to town at the crack of dawn
C F
And he had 'em all a wondering what he was doing
C G7 C
Yeah wondering what in Sam Hill's going on
Am
We knew this certain guy was not a gold miner
C G7
Cause he never took a shovel or a pick
C Am
He only took a little box of candy
Dm G7
And disappeared in Sam Hill mighty quick
C F
We tried to follow him to his destination
Dm G7
But he had a secret path and soon he was gone
C F
And he had us all a wondering what he was doing
C G7 C
Yeah wondering what in Sam Hill's going on
Am
I know that you have wondered too about Sam Hill
C G7
You've probably asked what in Sam Hill's going on
C Am
All I can say in answer to your question
Dm G7
Is the goings on are still going on
C F
This certain guy's still taking up his candy
Dm G7
He's 99 and all his youth is gone
C F
But he climbs that hill and still comes down a grinning
C G7 C
And we're wondering what in Sam Hill's going on
G7 C
What in Sam Hill's going on
There's a certain hill outside of town called Sam Hill
C G7
And a certain guy used to go there every day
