Words that rhyme with Grassy
Approached as a common-tongue word, grassy is a two-syllable core sitting on the clipped /ษช/ โ which doesn't close on a consonant at all. The lyric earns it by placement, not by selection. Engine returns: perfect matches come in a small handful, the family-rhyme bucket is bare, the slant pool is enormous on the vowel side. Lyric returns: an unguarded everyday word. Assonance is where the modern songwriting toolkit lives for this one.

Why grassy rhymes the way it does
Grassy is two-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the tight /ษช/, then it leaves the vowel hanging open. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 11 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 2, assonance 6,674, and consonance 521. 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. 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. Grassy works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
