Top 10 Country Singles

Kenny Chesney might be celebrating a second week at No. 1 with a "Beer In Mexico" and Tim McGraw might join him to commemorate his second week at No. 2 thanks to "Last Dollar (Fly Away)." Carrie Underwood's "Wasted" jumped three spots to No. 3 this week and Keith Urban's "Stupid Boy" is No. 4 for another week. Two spots higher than last week is Martina McBride's "Anyway" at No. 5. Rascal Flatts "Stand" their ground by hitting No. 6, but Trace Adkins' "Ladies Love Country Boys" dropped four spots to No. 7. Sugarland advanced to No. 8 with "Settlin'" and Rodney Atkins hit No. 9 with "Watching You." Joe Nichols' "I'll Wait For You" remains at No. 10. Kenny Chesney might have a third week at No. 1, but his friend Tim McGraw is hot on his heels.

Moving Up at the Speed of Light
Brad Paisley continues to move up the charts at a fast speed ("Ticks" advanced eight spots to No. 22 this week), but there are two songs that managed to jump a whopping thirteen slots this week. Rodney Atkins' "These Are My People" landed at No. 44 and George Strait's (Bruce Robison-penned) song, "Wrapped," hit No. 29.
