THis is my first tab so wish me luck!
-------------------------------------------------
The Verse is based on D chords played at the 14th fret, there are
3 main positons:

     D     Dm     D*
E----14----12-----17---------------------------------------------|
B----15----15-----15---------------------------------------------|
G----14----14-----14---------------------------------------------|
D----------------------------------------------------------------|
A----------------------------------------------------------------|
E----------------------------------------------------------------|

Fiddle about picking the notes from variations around
those positions and you should be able to get something that
sounds pretty close to whats played in the verse.
As an example, I think this is the sort of thing:

Verse example 1
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/r/razorlight/america_tab.html ]

B------15------15-------15--------15------15-------15------------|
G--14--------------14------------------14------------------------|
D----------------------------------------------------------------|

E----------------------------------------------------------------|

Verse example 2

E----------12--------------17-14----------------------------------|
B------15------15-------15-------15---17-17-15-17-15--------------|
G--14--------------14---------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------------------------------|
E-----------------------------------------------------------------|

The structure goes like this:


VERSE:
 What a drag it is
The shape i'm in
Well I go out somewhere
Then I come home again

VERSE:
I light a cigarette
'Cause I can't get no sleep
Theres nothing on the TV nothing on the radio
That means that much to me

D	A
All my life

F#m7     Bm
Watching America

D       A
All my life

F#m7              Bm
There's panic in America

D        A
