[Verse 1]

C                        F                  C
Down at the neon angel beneath the flashing star
  F             C         D             G
A rag tag congregation is gathered at the bar
 C                           F              C
Searching for salvation for just an hour or two
         F             C      G         C
While a jukebox in the corner plays the blues


[Chorus]

C      F                   C
It's midnight communion on Second Avenue
     F                  C              D             G
They take the wine till closing time a fellowship of fools
   C                                     F                   C
Confessions heard forgiveness given from twelve o clock till two
         F         C             G      C
It's midnight communion down on Second Avenue

[Verse 2]

C                            F                C
There's a fallen angel who's lost the will to fly
        F                  C
But her broken wings still have their strength
    D                 G
 To hold you when you cry
     C                                F              C
Lord knows it's not the best place to lay my burdens down
     F               C         G        C
But someone's always good for one more round


[Chorus]

C      F                   C
It's midnight communion on Second Avenue
     F                  C              D             G
They take the wine till closing time a fellowship of fools
   C                                     F                   C
Confessions heard forgiveness given from twelve o clock till two
         F         C             G      C
It's midnight communion down on Second Avenue
