Words that rhyme with Gas
From a sound-design view, gas is a word the lyric earns weight from by context on a low-front /æ/, one-syllable, and it lets the line dissolve into a fricative. Common words like this gain weight from the company they keep on the line. Two readings: as data — perfect-rhyme territory is narrow, family rhymes come up empty, the slant pool is enormous on the vowel side; as lyric — a word the lyric earns weight from by context. Assonance is where the modern songwriting toolkit lives for this one.

Why gas rhymes the way it does
Pull gas apart phonetically and you get a one-syllable word with a low-front /æ/ (/æ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close trails off into a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 39 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 71, assonance 6,599, and consonance 499. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Gas is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
