Why chancellor rhymes the way it does
Chancellor is built around the rounded /ɔːr/ (/ɔːr/); it's three-syllable and flows into the next line via a liquid. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 41, assonance 11,152, and consonance 26. 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. Chancellor is a word that benefits from the second pass.
