The Basic Formula
The German language has many colorful ways of expressing that one has reached the point of near-collapse from exhaustion. To make sentences expressing this, just fill in the blanks!
Ich bin komplett/total/völlig/absolut (Adjektiv).
I am completely/totally/entirely/absolutely (adjective).
Creative Adjectives

k.o. knocked out

kaputt broken
hundemüde dog tired
totmüde dead tired

Put it Together
Ich bin komplett hundemüde. I am completely dog tired.
Ich bin absolut alle. I am absolutely empty.
Ich bin total fix und fertig. I am totally finished.
Give it a try!
Remember
In less extreme cases (or if you're just too exhausted to think of something more compelling), the word müde (tired) will usually do just fine!
Ich bin müde. I am tired.
Now go get some rest.
