Here's a nice way to play that solo if you are playing solo acoustic..
at the *'s, switch the rest of your fingers to the corresponding open
chord - so you are playing the lead over the chords in the background.
To accentuate the switch, you can even do a quick light rake over the
chord from the bass strings at these  points, making the last string
played the one with the lead on it.  It's hard to explain.  But during
the "rest" section (between repeats, etc.), I like to keep the open D
string going.

For this part, obviously repeat the individual parts as many is
necessary (I'm not going to write the same fingering six times.. listen
to a recording to hear how it should be played)
