I'm so tired is another song that was inspired by the Beatles trip to Rishikesh in India in 1968. During this time the Beatles would often attend lectures that lasted for hours and spent the rest of the day mediating. Although it is thought that this would be relating it led to John Lennon becoming tired and stresses as he was unable to sleep at night.
In addition to the tiredness the lyrics to I'm so tired John also writes about the things that he is missing from back home and is denied in India, especially drugs, cigarettes and alcohol.
