In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 78 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 5, assonance 11,805, and consonance 1399. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. 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. Chavez is a word that benefits from the second pass.
