A. Ab Ab/Eb F7 Bb7 Eb7 Ab
1 1 / 5 6 2 5 1

1 6 2 5 1 is just a simple rhythm changes progression. It's actually from the A section of the song. There are heaps of variations but a simple one goes

A) Ab Maj F7 Bb7 Eb7 Cm F7 Bbm Eb7 Ab7 Db D dim Cm F7 Bbm Eb7 :II
1 6 2 5 3 6 2 5 1 4 4 dim 3 6 2 5
B) C7 C7 F7 F7 Bb7 Bb7 Eb7 Eb7 (1 chord per bar here)
3 3 6 6 2 2 5 5
A) Ab Maj F7 Bb7 Eb7 Cm F7 Bbm Eb7 Ab7 Db Ddim Cm F7 Bb m Eb7

"I Got Rhythm" is a song composed by George Gershwin with lyrics by Ira Gershwin and published in 1930, which became a jazz standard. Its chord progression, known as the "rhythm changes", is the foundation for many other popular jazz tunes

Original Question

Chord question for piano players. I need to know the keys for these chords?

Q. F minor 7 over E flat
F7
B flat 7 over D
C7 flat 9
G minor 7 flat 5

Thanks

A. There are chord charts all over the internet.

Basic chord structure should be easy for a pianist to learn. You are a pianist according to your profile.

1. Eb in the bass, F, Ab, C (Eb) -- but I wouldn't play the second Eb
2. F, A, C, Eb
3. D in the bass, Bb D F Ab
4. C, E G Ab Bb -- but voicing is the key to this chord -- a good way to play it is: Left hand C and Bb, Right hand E (G) Ab C -- I would leave out the G

5. G Bb Db F -- some folks call it a "half diminished 7th"

This is pretty basic theory, and I would start learning it now. A good pianist should have these at her fingertips.
