How would I preform two inner joins in one query?
Ie: three tables
Invoice
Address
Client
Invoice has a column which references an id in clients. It also has a column which references an address. I need to get both the clients name from the matched table and the address from the matched table. How would I INNER JOIN
both tables?
I'll add a few details...
invoice has rows address(references address id), client(references client id), id and notes
client has rows first_name, last_name
address has rows street_name and city
I need to pull up

A sample e.g. based on learning from @Dan Grossman above:
SELECT FILM.TITLE, ACTOR.FIRST_NAME, ACTOR.LAST_NAME FROM ACTOR
INNER JOIN FILM_ACTOR
ON ACTOR.ACTOR_ID = FILM_ACTOR.ACTOR_ID
INNER JOIN FILM
ON FILM_ACTOR.FILM_ID = FILM.FILM_ID
WHERE ACTOR.FIRST_NAME = 'Nick' AND ACTOR.LAST_NAME = 'Wahlberg'

Something like:
SELECT
c.*, i.*, a.*
FROM
invoices i
INNER JOIN
client c
ON
i.clientid = c.clientid
INNER JOIN
address a
ON
a.clientid = c.clientid
WHERE
i.id = 21
Don't forget you only select the fields you require, not * (all).

You can have as many JOIN clauses as you need in the query. Each has an ON clause where you specify the related columns between the joined tables.
SELECT
columns
FROM
invoice
INNER JOIN
address
ON
join_condition
INNER JOIN
client
ON
join_condition
