Darryl Worley holds onto the top spot for a second week with "Awful Beautiful Life." Moving up three spots to the No. 2 spot is Keith Urban's "You're My Better Half," while Brad Paisley's "Mud on the Tires" jumps four spots to No. 3 this week. Rascal Flatts "Bless the Broken Road" remains at No. 4. Gretchen Wilson's "When I Think About Cheatin'" moves up one spot to No. 5. Dropping four spots to No. 6 is Blake Shelton's "Some Beach." At No. 7 is Tim McGraw's "Back When," dropping four spots. LeAnn Rimes remains at No. 8 with "Nothin' 'bout Love Makes Sense," while Alan Jackson's "Monday Morning Church" remains at No. 9. Moving up two spots to No. 10 is Reba McEntire's "He Gets That From Me," making it her 54th Top 10 song, and tying her with Dolly Parton for the most Top 10 hits by a female country artist. Looks like Rascal Flatts "Bless the Broken Road" may be our next No. 1 next week. Darryl's song has lost its bullet so it's going to move back down.

We have two songs tied for the fastest-rising tunes this week. The first is from Lonestar, with "Class Reunion (That Used To Be Us)" which debuted last week at No. 48 and this week is at No. 39. Trent Willmon's "The Good Life" also moves up nine from No. 52 to No. 43 this week. Moving up eight spots is Rascal Flatts, with "Skin". It moves up eight spots from No. 59 to No. 51.

Debuting this week at No. 44 is Shania Twain's "Don't." Rascal Flatts "Oklahoma-Texas Line" debuts at No. 53. Gretchen Wilson releases "Homewrecker" which debuts at No. 58, and Tim McGraw's latest is "Drugs or Jesus," debuting at No. 60.

Make it ten weeks at No. 1 on the album charts for Shania Twain's Greatest Hits collection. Remaining at No. 2 is Toby Keith's Greatest Hits 2. Rascal Flatts' Feels Like Today moves up one spot to No. 3 this week. At No. 4 is George Strait's 50 Number Ones, which moves up one from last week. Gretchen Wilson drops two spots to No. 5 with Here For The Party. Tim McGraw's Live Like You Were Dyin' moves up one to No. 6. Big & Rich take the No. 7 spot with Horse of a Different Color. Brad Paisley remains at No. 9 with Mud on the Tires, while Kenny Chesney comes in at No. 10 with When The Sun Goes Down

Merle Haggard debuts at No. 65 with Unforgettable.
