Contacts has foreign key of companies. Companies has foreign key of campaigns. All of them have a column 'name'. I need a join table which will have contact name company name and campaign name.

contact

companies
id   name campaign_id
campaigns
id   name company_id

Answer 1

from contact con inner join company com
on con.companyid = com.companyid
inner join campaign campa
on com.campaignid = campa.campaignid

assuming id columns of respected tables

Answer 2

SELECT contacts.name,companies.name,campaigns.name 
FROM contacts 
INNER JOIN 
(companies INNER JOIN campaigns 
ON campaigns.campaignid=companies.campaignid) 
ON contacts.companyid=companies.companyid
AND //add any additional filters HERE
