Here you go. Practice playing/memorizing all the below chords in all inversions as well as memorizing the following chord progressions in all keys (especially in the keys you described above) and you'll be on the right track to playing success. After you've memorized these, you can build upon this by adding 7ths to all these chords, learning the 'minor' chord progressions, and then learning alternate voicings (including rootless type jazz). The musical learning path is a life long road, so no matter where you're at now, there's always going to be 10x more to discover.

I - VI - IV -V - I

key of C: C - Am - F - G7 - C

example of above left hand chord progression utilizing smooth voice leading:

key of G: G - Em - Am - D7 - G
key of D: D - Bm - Em - A7 - D
key of F: F - Dm - Gm - C7 - F
key of Bb: Bb - Gm - Cm - F7 - Bb
