'Music gets me over Renee'

New York - Country singer Kenny Chesney says his music helped him deal with the break-up of his brief marriage to Bridget Jones actress Renee Zellweger.
"It's like medicine - and obviously I need that now," the 37-year-old musician tells Life magazine in an upcoming issue.
His new album, The Road and the Radio, is set for release November 8.
Zellweger filed for an annulment last month. The couple married in a surprise Caribbean island ceremony in May after first meeting in January.
Chesney tells the magazine he has learned that he needs to be more patient. "'I need it all and I need it now' was my mentality before. I used to rush everything to get it done."
Including marriage?
"What was that old song: 'We got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout,'" Chesney replied.
