A relative pronoun introduces a subordinate clause, called a relative clause. A relative clause 'relates' information about it's antecedent.

The relative pronouns are: who, whom, whose, which, that.

Examples:

The actor who played Hamlet was excellent.

The man whose car I hit was very nice about it.

The shoes that I bought were very expensive.

The customer for whom I made that cake will pick it up at four.

I found the book which is out of print at the book fair.

"Because I am tired" is a subordinate (or dependent) clause. It wold not make sense to say it unless either you also said the independent clause, or somehow the connection was obvious, as if someone had just asked you why you are going home.
