2. "Chemtrails over the Country Club" - 93
3. "Tulsa Jesus Freak" - 81
4. "Let Me Love You like a Woman" - 78
5. "Wild at Heart" - 71
6. "Dark But Just a Game" - 79
7. "Not All Who Wander Are Lost" - 73
8. "Yosemite" - 79
9. "Breaking Up Slowly" (featuring Nikki Lane) - 81
10. "Dance Till We Die" - 74
11. "For Free" (featuring Zella Day and Weyes Blood) - 72 [First added to this chart: 05/04/2021]
