Words that rhyme with Chit
There's a particular shape to chit: one-syllable, built on the high /ɪ/, ending that ends with a clean stop. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. Its job in a lyric is a plain-speech anchor, holding down whatever line it lands in. Search for what rhymes with chit and the engine returns a recognisable shape: strict rhymes arrive in number here, nothing lands in the family-rhyme column, and the slant pool, matched on vowel alone, is huge. Lean on the strict column for the hooks; the slants can colour the verses.

Why chit rhymes the way it does
Pull chit apart phonetically and you get a one-syllable word with the clipped /ɪ/ (/ɪ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close lands on a closed syllable. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 66 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 44, assonance 10,911, and consonance 907. 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. Practical guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With chit, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
