Words that rhyme with Catcher
From a sound-design view, catcher is a common-tongue word on the /ษหr/ that mid-Atlantic ears class as one vowel, two-syllable, and it ends on a liquid that pulls the line forward. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. The assonance pool has more matches than any verse will use, family-rhyme territory comes up dry, and the perfect-rhyme list is short. Look up rhymes for catcher and you'll get a particular story: the pull is toward slant work. Let the assonance column shape the verse; the strict matches can punctuate it.

Why catcher rhymes the way it does
Catcher is two-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the /ษหr/ vowel, then it ends on a liquid that pulls the line forward. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 5 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 6, assonance 6,693, and consonance 182. 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. Writing-tip: don't end every line with the strict rhyme. Use the slant columns at the joints and the strict matches at the seams. Catcher works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
