For the last MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart of 2021, Ashley Gorley remains at No. 1 for the second consecutive week.

The charting songs cementing Gorley’s place at the top are “Steal My Love” (Dan + Shay), “Take My Name” (Parmalee), “New Truck” (Dylan Scott), “You Should Probably Leave” (Chris Stapleton), “Sand In My Boots” (Morgan Wallen), “Beers On Me” (Dierks Bentley, Hardy & Breland), “Give Heaven Some Hell” (Hardy) and “Slow Down Summer” (Thomas Rhett).

Jesse Frasure moves up to No. 2 with “Whiskey And Rain” (Michael Ray), “One Mississippi” (Kane Brown), “Slow Down Summer” (Thomas Rhett), and “If I Was A Cowboy” (Miranda Lambert). Taylor Swift moves down one to No. 3 on the MusicRow chart, as her songs “All Too Well,” “I Bet You Think About Me,” “Nothing New,” “Red,” “The Very First Night,” “Better Man,” and “Treacherous” continue to chart on the country charts.
