Van Morrison - TB Sheets From Album - Early Years 67-68 This song is a true story about Van's former wife who died of tuburculosis. T.B. Sheets" was recorded on March 29, 1967 at A & R Recording Studios In New York City with Bert Berns as producer.

Sheets, wrote that "after 'T.B. Sheets' was recorded, the rest of the session had to be cancelled because Van broke down in tears."Likewise, according to John Collis, Morrison could later joke about this song. "I'm writing 'T.B. Sheets Part II' now," he said in 1972. "Keeping the same riff, the same groove." However, it's on record -- though the story could be exaggerated -- that after laying down this track he broke down in tears, unable to continue the session.

So open up the window and let me breathe, I said, open up the window and let me breathe I'm looking down to the street below Lord, I cried for you, I cried, Oh, Lord. The cool room, Lord, it a fool's room, The cool room, Lord, it a fool's room, And I can almost smell your T.B. sheets And I can almost smell your T.B. sheets, on your sick bed. I gotta go, I gotta, And you said, please stay. I want, I want a drink of water, I want a drink of water, Go into t
