This is my first tab and I first heard the song today - please be kind.  
Wanted to belt out an acoustic version and no tabs had been submitted for this one.
From the new album (FINALLY!!!)  Immortalized!!!
[Verse 1]
               F#5    F5/  F#5  
Like an unsung melody
                                F#5      F5/ F#5  
The truth is waiting there for you to find it
                                F#     F/  F#  
It's not a blight, but a remedy
F#A clear reminder of how it began
BDeep inside your memory
BTurned away as you struggled to find it
                                    F#    F/  F#  
You heard the call as you walked away
                                            F#    F/  F#  
A voice of calm from within the silence
                                      F#     F/  F#  
And for what seemed an eternity
F#You're waiting, hoping it would call out again
BYou heard the shadow reckoning
BThen your fears seemed to keep you blinded
                                      F#    F/  F#  
You held your guard as you walked away
[Chorus]
F#When you think D#mall is forsaC#ken
  D#m/            F#  B  
Listen to me now (all is not forsaken)
You need never feel broken again
         G#m                  B           F#   F/ F#  
Sometimes darkness can show you the light
[Verse 2]
                    F#   F/ F#  
An unforgivable tragedy
                                F#   F/ F#  
The answer isn't' where you think you'd find it
                                  F#    F/  F#  
Prepare yourself for the reckoning
                                         F#    F/  F#  
For when your world seems to crumble again
BDon't be afraid, don't turn away
BYou're the one who can redefine it
                               F#   F- F#  
Don't let hope become a memory
                                   F#   F- F#  
Let the shadow permeate your mind and
                                   F#   F- F#  
Reveal the thoughts that were tucked away
                                   F#   F- F#  
So that the door can be opened again
BWithin your darkest memories
BLies the answer if you dare to find it
F#Don't let hope become a memoryF  
[Chorus]
F#When you think D#mall is forsaC#ken
