Try like this:

select schemaname,
        tablename,
        pg_relation_size((schemaname || '.' || '"' || tablename ||
'"')::regclass)
from pg_tables;

You need to schema qualify the tables. Additionally, if you happen to
have table names that have a mix of capital and non capital letters or
contain other characters that might be problematic, you need to enclose
the table name in double quotes.
