Want to know what rhymes with scares?

When you're writing a song, rhyming words are as important as melody and lyrics

Some songs can get by with just a hook, but true hit records use creative rhymes to create interesting lyrical hooks and melodies

But there's two catches when it comes to rhyming words

The first catch is obvious--there are no hard and fast rules concerning what sounds good in rap music, country music, rock n' roll, etc

But the second catch keeps songwriters from getting the right rhymes: finding "themes" or rhyme families that naturally sound like certain genres of music while avoiding others

The problem with most rhyming dictionaries is they're not targeted to your specific genre of music! Even if they have themes you need, they don't give you enough variety to be truly useful. With Chorus, we find you only those rhymes which are useful for songwriters, so you know that the words we give you are singable and work for the genre you're writing in

This is just a sample of the creative tools you can find in the full version of Chorus. The full version has more writing styles, more ways to edit your work, and more fun for creative writers!
