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

It's midnight communion down on Second Avenue

There's a fallen angel who's lost the will to fly

To hold you when you cry

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
