What I do (not saying it will work every time!)...

You've got a great chorus....but no verse....you're stuck.

Get your little cassette recorder running (or equivalent). Say to yourself. I'm going to play the chorus then go into the verse (say to yourself that the verse already exists)...

Play the chorus...then go into the verse. What can you hear in your head when you get to that point? If you can hear something...that's your verse!

Sounds a bit mad I know, but it often works for me.
