Exact match with regular expression

Hi
I have a file with data arranged into columns. The first column is the chromosome name.
When I use grep to subset only rows with chr1, I get chr1 but also chr10, chr11,..
How do I get only rows with chr1?

grep chr1 filein > fileout
head fileout
chr1 59757841
chr11 108258691
chr10 86158268
chr12 112891635

thanks
Joseph
