where can i get jazz piano chords from jazz songs?

Q. any websites (besides 8notes.com) that have the chords or riffs to jazz songs like "moondance" or something like that?

A. You can google the phrase "The Real Book free".

The other poster gave you an invaluable site for identifying chords and learning to play them, but the main riffs and chord progressions of Jazz standards can be found in The Real Book, volumes 1-3. I would highly recommend just buying the books... they get used A LOT and pay for themselves after the first couple uses... not to mention that musicians still get paid *nudge nudge*!
