origin

• Originally a nautical phrase of the 19th century.
  
  On a tall ship, "sheets" are the ropes which hold the corners of the sails (the clews) taut, so that the sail can catch wind and move the ship forward. If one of these lines becomes loose, the ship wobbles and trembles slightly, if two of them become loose the ship yaws (pitches) from side to side rather drunkenly and if three sheets are (flapping about) in the wind, then the ship careens all over the place and is all but impossible to steer, much like an extremely drunk person.
  
  "Three sheets in the wind" became "three sheets to the wind" at some point in history and has since been adopted by non-seafarers.
