Words that rhyme with Abundance
The phonetic facts first: abundance is three-syllable, the rhyme-bearing vowel is the front-and-flat /æ/, and the line ends in a hissed consonant. It's a concept-word that wants a concrete rhyme to ground it. Songwriters reach for it as a word that pushes the line forward. No strict pair turns up at all, family rhymes are simply absent, and the slant pool is enormous on the vowel side. Treat the assonance list as the main shelf — the strict column is the footnote.

Why abundance rhymes the way it does
The phonology of abundance is a three-syllable core: a low-front /æ/ (/æ/), then it lets the line dissolve into a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 27, assonance 5,377, and consonance 20. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. In the room with a guitar: write toward the strict rhyme first, then go back through and replace the obvious ones with the assonance matches that earned their place. Abundance is a word that benefits from the second pass.
