The second chord is a C minor with a major 7th (the B). In between a C minor and a C minor 7, it really gives a descending and moody feel to the verse in the progression.
My Funny Valentine, Simple Twist of Fate, For The Roses come to mind as having this kind of descending chord progression where the root note (typically the bass) doesn't change until the third or fourth bar or chord.
